Sparrow with a Story

Hotel Post, Aufkirchen, Germany

This little sparrow fell out of the nest and was picked up and raised by the receptionist, Nina, in
the Hotel we stayed in on Lake Starnberg. She had the little one with her all the time -
day and night. When we arrived, the sparrow was only a few days old and still naked. I took the photo when checking out five days later.

J'espère qu'il a survécu a sa mésaventure, il est adorable.

Amazing how fast they grow. One of the girls at work took care of a little one like this. It is a very time consuming job but it is now ready to fly away. Looks like this guy is doing well! V

Lovely story! Baby birds mature incredibly fast. I've raised several. Very rewarding watching them develop and then fly off.
