QUICK THINKING SAVES BLUE JAY FAMILY IN FALLEN NEST!
Daily ‘Good News’ on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/GreatAnimalRescueChase
Angela Norton of Michigan reports on what she and her huband did to help a fallen nest of blue jays.
“We didn’t quite know what to do but knew we had to do something quickly. So I found a basket in the basement and put some Spanish moss in it. Then we put the Blue Jay nest (with the babies in it) in the basket and hung the basket in the tree in the front yard where the babies’ parents could get to it. They were chirping quite loudly so it didn’t take long for the parents to find them.
The parents of the babies were squawking raucously at first but then settled down to feed and care for the babies. They stayed in the basket nest for about two weeks then they started leaving the nest and walking up the branches of the tree. Pretty soon all the babies had left the nest and were starting their first flights. We were pretty happy with the outcome. The babies (now grown) still hang out in the tree and feed from our bird feeders in the front yard. ”
