If the one kestrel had not already been in the box, I would probably have advised leaving it alone. <br /><br />And if it really had PCB or other contamination, it was good to get it cleaned off, I suppose.Chas S.

The runt of the litter stuck around a few days after its siblings left, but it finally split too.Darrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14316091005058053074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6321070.post-63123372950879106212012-06-21T18:59:57.017-06:002012-06-21T18:59:57.017-06:00One day at work during break out on the patio, a b...One day at work during break out on the patio, a baby bird fell out of the tree overhead and landed on the pavement. It stood up, looking a bit dazed. I walked toward it, and saw that it was a small hawklike thing. It took one look at me and ran/jumped into the bush at the base of the tree. I called Colorado Fish & Wildlife and described the bird, and what happened. The nice person on the phone told me it was a kestrel, and to leave it the heck alone. They said the parents would watch over the chick until it got it wings. Sure enough, the next morning the chick was up in the tree with its siblings, flying short hops in and around the tree, and the parents were overseeing things. They were all gone by the end of the day.Darrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14316091005058053074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6321070.post-66184991228468962672012-06-20T18:59:04.480-06:002012-06-20T18:59:04.480-06:00Patrick: Reality series?
