It Seems My New Summer Tradition In Hampden Is Saving Baby Birds Last summer, almost exactly a year ago, I went out into the driveway for some reason, and noticed a little dirt mound on the ground. I was literally about to kick it across the driveway, and I realized some it was moving. Upon closer inspection, I saw it was two little phoebe chicks. I scooped them up into a box with a heating pad, and zipped them down to Avian Haven, a bird rehabber in Freedom. They were in decent shape, and expected to make a full recovery, though I never knew for sure. So yesterday when I happened upon another bird's nest, in the exact same spot as last year, I knew exactly what to do.
