Aw Frick

-I got to hold a bird! They're shockingly warm. -We got 3 American Robins from 3 different people and they all were dripping mites -One came in a box the size of a CRT TV and another in a sleepytime tea box. McMansion vs NYC apartment.... -The bird i held was one of the bugged ones -First Eastern Bluebird!!! they have a bubblegum pink mouth -bastard starling escaped thrice

Specific patient report: -nestling cardinal was SO GOOD, ate a big cricket despite being a little pink eraser -older nestling robins refused to eat anything which was tough because not only did i have to feed them but i had to feed them food coated in yucky vitamins. their nest by the end of my shift was like 10% mealworms. -We got two new baby baby robins and one wasnt moving at all and i was like uh oh but once I stuffed a mealworm in there he realized he wasnt dead and this wasnt hell -wiwi starlings are SO good at eating. unfortunately this is less charming once they're fluttering around biting your arm bc wire mother isn't giving them 25 mealworms for one meal
