HA! It’s not a rabbit!!! Let’s be honest…who rolled their eyes at me!! Haha
Rufio is a crow!
Rufio was kicked out of a 40 foot redwood tree in front of my boyfriends house, in the weeks earlier we had found 2 other nest mates, I tried saving one but he was too far gone, and the other was dead.
I have no idea why they were flung out of the nest, I can’t even see where the nest is. It’s really sad though.
I was raised with parrots and smaller birds, where I was taught how to hand feed and care for hatchilings. My grandma had a large business breeding exotic parrots and hand raising them.
I couldn’t just leave him there, I don’t believe that it’s “nature” that my boyfriends cat would have eaten him surely. The parents weren’t landing to feed him and the mosquitos under that tree are RIDICULOUS I have at least 20 bites even through my shirt!! What gives!? He’s doing really well now, his legs are getting stronger – he has a calcium deficeny so he’s been a bit wobbly. I now have to start introducing egg whites, soggy dog food, bugs, and steamed veggies to him. He’s so cute! I called around some places before I was attactched to him to raise him….they wanted to charge me to take him…. no one wanted to take him either since he needs feedings every hour. AHHHHH!!! You should hear his sqwaaak for food. It’s so ugly lol!!!!
anyways here he is!




Don’t mind the messy face…we are messy eaters at my house haha!
