Geppetto and WaHoo
I would wager this is the brother or sister of HooHah, the Baby Grackle, I found the other day. This Chipping Sparrow adopted him. He would fly in every few minutes with food and the Baby would eagerly chase him around. Then the Sparrow would put his head all the way in Baby's mouth and feed him. I thought maybe I should bring the Grackle to the Animal Hospital too. But he was not injured like his sibling. So I told myself, if WaHoo could fly I would let him make a go of it. I watched them for about an hour and the Baby became very comfortable with me, so I stroked its back with my finger and he flapped up a couple of feet onto the limb of a nearby bush. Geppetto met him there and fed him some more. I think he'll be flying well by tomorrow.
