I saved a bird.

So I was standing in my driveway talking to a fren when all of a sudden some birds flew in and one of them crashed into my rain gutter really hard and fell straight down to the ground. I think the bird is a Starling or a young robin? I walked down to where it was lying and it was knocked out cold. The Sun was beating down so I picked it up and went into the house and sat in my chair holding it in my hands. It couldn't move but when I made a click sound it'd open its eyes for a couple seconds then pass back out. I sat there with it for about 30 minutes, squeezing its feet and just cradling it in my hands and then took it back outside and put it under my deck in the shade.

I went back in the house and came back out to check on it about 30 minutes later. It was still out cold. At this point I figured it wasn't gonna make it. I picked it up and made a clicking sound and it opened its eyes but no movement or anything. I put it back on the ground and went back in the air conditioning. Came back out about 25 minutes later and it was still the same. I picked it up and this time it gripped my finger with its left foot. I started clicking and moving it around and its other leg started gripping. I would hold it above the ground to help it walk but it still wasn't there yet but at least now it was on its feet. I worked with it for about ten minutes and then let it rest again. I go back into the house and come back about 30 minutes later. It was still there but as I got closer it started hopping and then flew away. The S.O.B. didn't thank me or say goodbye or anything! The nerve! But seriously, I'm glad the little guy made it.

Metaphorically?

Nice thing you did there, however if it was a starling you should've stepped on it.

I've since identified it. It was a Gray Catbird. I don't see those a lot here so it was different to me. They seem like a pretty decent bird. They sound like a cat but mimic other birds. I have mocking birds come in and they go through all kinds of sounds, including sirens and car alarms but apparently this one can do that too. I think its a beautiful bird. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs7htuxGElk

You’re a wholesome fella

Ha! That's funny. A long time ago there was a little bird lying on a sidewalk that was hard to see. I grabbed a guy's arm who was walking by and just about to put his foot down over the bird and said "Don't put your foot down" and miracle of miracles, he automatically obeyed.

There was a seven story building there. The bird had probably bounced off of a window. We just sat beside the bird and talked so no one else would step on it for about half an hour when it got up and flew away.

Just a dumb little nothing event that you remember forever, but can't really remember what you got for your birthdays without effort.

Not a dumb little nothing event AT ALL! You saved a living creatures life and went out of your way to do it. Good on you mate! That's some good karma on you!

I think it did thank you, by waiting for you to come back again before it flew away.

Ya know, you may be right. Thanks

Fuckin good job. Maybe that retarded bird didn't thank you, but I do.

Thanks, man.

Nice!

It was a test. You passed.

Some birds will fake being dead. I found that out when a cat brought me a "dead" bird. Once it got into my hands it freaked out and started trying to fly away inside the house, so I just folded it's wings in and then walked it outside.

I’m happy it worked out. Birds are beautiful creatures. I had one die in my hand a while back. It didn’t run when I walked by. I picked it up. I held some water up to its beak and sat there with it for a few minutes and it just died. Really bummed me out. You know cats kill billions of birds a year for fun. Like serial killers. Cats are the satans of the animal
Kingdom. There’s a good and evil spectrum for everything and cats torture for fun. Kill your neighbors and their cats and god will let you bask in paradise for eternity

The S.A.N.E. race needs to express and exercise its Whiteness periodically and coming to the aid of birds and wildlife is the best way to do it....obviously your Whiteness still works.

good job! I'd do the same

[ - ] HeyJames 0 points 1 weekMay 6, 2024 09:21:50 ago (+0/-0)

I would have let my cat kill it honestly

[ - ] JustALover 0 points 1 weekMay 7, 2024 15:57:36 ago (+0/-0)

And that's why cat people love toxoplasmosis.

[ - ] HeyJames 0 points 1 weekMay 7, 2024 18:03:36 ago (+0/-0)

Maybe. We would all skull fuck you and whatever pets you have..

The S.O.B. didn't thank me or say goodbye or anything!

That's because you put your human stank on it, now if you let it out the other birds will peck its brains out. It was fleeing for its life.
