Not chickens / CARDINALS

[Bettyboop7499]

1 of the baby birds survived!! Mom and dad both came back and rotated feedings. She grew up strong!
Thursday after work I checked on my australorp since losing my red star

I noticed the baby cardinals dad frantically flying back and forth. When I checked the nest she was gone I looked in the bottom of my coop but didn't see her! After relaxing I could hear her in the surrounding area. She was still in the same holly Bush just on an outward branch. I witnessed mom and dad come back and forth and then her take the first plunge out of the nest! Mom and dad both flying up to a tree then back down to the ground. She has slept 2 nights in a Bush around the front of our house with mom and dad at her side.

This was awesome to witness and I am so grateful to have you guys to share this with!

That is awesome! I'm glad to hear at least one survived. Thank you so much for keeping us posted! There is nothing worse than not knowing how an intense story ends, I'm like & then throw popcorn down!
