Nest Jumper

We don't know whether this bird jumped or was pushed from the nest. But by her eager demeanor, it is safe to say, she probably jumped!

I think it's a robin red breast, but I could be totally wrong. We put her in a makeshift nest and have her outside in hopes her folks will come back and feed her.

I have been giving her some moths to eat. She gobbles them up greedily and begs for more. She had 5 of them for breakfast!

And these are the big mori bombyx silkworm moths! She needs to grow fast and get her wings so she can join nature.

We are keeping a close eye on her safety and welfare.
