Whistling in Muriel

My friend from work is a magician with animals.
This is a baby Robin that she raised.
She was just getting her feathers when someone brought her into work.
Lauren took her home, nursed her along until she was able to take off on her own.
She called her Muriel.
That was a few summers ago.
Hope she is still doing well.

Nice. My mom fed a baby once as she gardened and I believe the same bird returned
for seven years as it would sit on the corner of the garage outside the kitchen window,
waiting for her to come out and toss it worms as she gardened.

I admire her patience and desire to train her.

I believe a Robin only lives a couple of years at best... but that would be longer than if she had not had the love a a good Woman Love the shot
