yesterday morning we went for a walk on Franklin Avenue here in Greenpoint and came home with a little bird. We don't know what kind he is, but he's a baby with fluffy brown feathers. We found him, lost and scared, bouncing around on the sidewalk and we could hear his mother in their nest on a window sill three stories above us. There was no way to reunite them, so we took him home.
A few of his friends visited our backyard yesterday afternoon, and they were chirping back and forth.
We've been feeding him a mixture of rice cereal and corn meal through a syringe, and even after just one day, he seems to be getting stronger. Maybe soon he'll be able to fly away...
