Today I got a text message from one of our church members saying they had a baby bird and asking if I would take it. I volunteer at our local zoo, and they knew that, so they figured I'd be a good one to call. I went and picked it up and brought it home so the kids could see it. It is a baby kestrel, just starting to get some of its feathers. It was sooo cute! Callie didn't want to put it down. She named it "Chasey" because it was being chased by a cat when it was rescued! I think Callie is going to be a zoologist or wildlife rescuer when she grows up. She absolutely loves all animals. Anytime she sees an animal on tv or in a book, she tells me she wants a baby one! If we lived at a zoo, she would be in heaven! When we took the bird over to the zoo, she cried and cried because she wanted to keep it so badly. Poor kid. We definitely need to live on more land so we can get more animals for her!
