Description
I found another baby bird in my yard the other day. This time it was in the back under a lounge chair. The mom was protecting it, but let me put it in the hedge. I saw her feeding it worms and hear it peeping so I know it is still doing okay. Lisa is holding it here for us.

(EDIT: Yes, I believe this is a Mocking Bird)

Great shot and rescue. Dana

There are few babies in this world that are as ugly as baby birds, lol. I don't know why, but I get the impression this may be a Mocking Bird. Do you know the species? I have had little success with saving baby birds this young which have fallen out of their nests but it has worked out OK a few times so what else can one do. It is a good sign that the parents are feeding it, now you have to hope that predators don't find it. I wish this baby well and I applaud your efforts. Thanks for sharing this nice capture. Lee

Good that you could rescue the baby bird. I read somewhere that it is okay to place a fallen baby back into the nest, if you can find it. I hope the parents keep up the good work of feeding it. Excellent image. ;c)

I have to agree with Leeco, they are ungainly and awkward looking when young. Amazing that they turn into such graceful and beautiful creatures. Good luck with them : )

How wonderful that it seems to be doing well. I hope it continues to grow. No not the loveliest look in the world, but the sure do turn out lovely. Beautiful shot!

Awww, a face only a mother could love! ;O) I'm a bird person, so I think they're lovely too- fuzz and all! Baby mockingbirds are awfully cute and they are quite tolerant of us humans... Great find!

Great image and great news that the chick is doing well.

Great capture!

What a gorgeous capture, and touching too! I'm probably one of the few people around who thinks that baby birds are adorable! I mean, they're cute in a way that defies cuddling, but it's cute nonetheless. I'm glad to know that this little chick is doing okay. Such a marvelous shot. And isn't it amazing how light baby birds are? For as much as they eat, you'd think they weigh more!

I find the image beautiful. But then I find nothing in the animal kingdom unsightly or ugly. Well done indeed for coming to the aid of this baby bird and thank you so much for sharing. ^=^
