I was on my way home earlier, about 1am my time. Im almost to my neighborhood, I begin to slow down to take the corner (25mph, like always), and I see something. Its standing about 4-5" high, and is kinda brown. I stomp on the brakes, barely stopping in time. I back up, pull up next to it. Reach down to get it and it runs under the car. I get out, grab it, put it on the passenger seat, where the remaining section of my journey (about 5 blocks) it is staring at my stereo. I guess it liked the lights? I reach over, it freaks out and jumps onto my side of the car. I catch it, put it in my left hand, look at my right, finding that it **** all over me. mad I take it inside, give it some water, it bit me twice, drank some more water, tried to run away, and now its outside. Safe in the backyard. I think I'm going to move it onto the hill though. That way my evil, mini weiner dog won't give it hell in the morning.



I guess this makes up for the owl in the motorcycle thread last week. laugh

by the way, if it tends to whistle/sing, it's a male.. if it hardly does it.. then it's a female.. just wanted to add that in laugh

I take that back. He makes sounds, doesn't really sing though. Just three short chirp/squeeks and then a long one.

I had to put him up higher on my back hill so my mini weiner dog won't eat him in the morning.

I don't know much about birds
but I don't understand why you would bring a bird home with you.
sometimes, yes, I can see people picking up stray cats and dogs, but a bird??
was it injured?

I saved a bird a dog was chewin on one day. After doing some research I found out that they get frightened very easily and there little hearts can stop if they get scared to much. So keep it quiet and slow and dark if possible. Hopefully hell be running away here pretty soon. Mine was able to fly away on its own after about 3 days, it just sat around end ate seed, im thinking it didnt want to leave. :rolleyes:
