And kudos to you for helping the poor trapped bird! I love the birds and seeing your words on how you rescued him was so sweet. <br />Oh, and you photography is amazing!

I chased a black cat out of our back garden for fear it would catch one of our visiting birds and yet I felt sorry for the cat .. I still will never agree that cats should be let outdoors to go where ever they want to. There are too many dangers every where for animals cats or not !<br />Your chickadee reminded me of my sad story of a very young Goldfinch that hit our glass deck doors so hard he/she did break his neck .. I looked straight into his eyes as the light in them faded .. it made me so profoundly sad .. I know people might say there are lots of birds or animals that die every day but to look into their eyes as they do .. it touches you deeply. I am so glad your chickadee was alright and able to fly away .. I feel sorry for the beautiful dog that has an owner with no brains or heart or soul that would not take proper care of this little soul.<br />Life is so hard to understand some times .. you wonder how it all works.<br />JoyCanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-997929962455142572012-09-08T15:22:48.321-07:002012-09-08T15:22:48.321-07:00To use a sports metaphor, you are two for two, as ...To use a sports metaphor, you are two for two, as in you made the right choice in both instances.

I think this was a simple case of oversight bordering on neglect. I would say it was oversight if this had been a one time accident, but the dog had wandered off previously. Hopefully, a lesson was learned by the owner this time around. The dog may not be so lucky the next time.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-68641808668720194592012-09-08T04:54:03.208-07:002012-09-08T04:54:03.208-07:00Pauline, Birds are such delicate little creatures,...Pauline, Birds are such delicate little creatures, aren't they?
