Nestlings Survive Alone?
by Jenny
(Dublin, CA)
So about a couple weeeks ago, a little bird decided to lay her eggs in one of my hanging baskets.
The bird that was nesting this morning seems to had gotten mad at me (i assume it was the male) ...he irresponsibly left the poor little nestlings alone.
I was just watering my plants, and wasn't even watering the one where he was sitting... it seems that I got close enough to making feel that I was a threat, and so he flew away.
What a chicken! I wonder if the female would do something about this... like we humans would do. you know...
Anyway, do you have any advise on what should I do if the parents don't come back? I hope the female come in this afternoon for her night shift because I don't know if the poor little birdies will survive for very long.
Not a very good picture of the nestlings attached
