That guy ^^ crashed into our big windows first thing this a.m. 

The big wild boys and I scrambled to help.  Tristen dug him a worm.  Isaac gently scooped and wrapped him up.  Seth and I just held our breath hoping hard for the best. 

And then we waited. 
I was fairly certain the bird’s injuries were too great.  His eyes were rolling.  His breathing was rapidly shallow.  He kind of tipped forward onto the top of his head as we tried to help him rest a little more comfortably.  

We left him to tend our morning rituals all the while watching and waiting. 

45 minutes passed. 

And then he sat up. 

He flew to the screen of our sliding doors.  The boys watched from inside. 
And then he flew away ❤
