Lelia,
I am very glad that Luke is back safe and sound! Little birds can be so 
quiet and also amazingly quick. I was visiting a friend a few years ago who 
had a budgerie, a very gentle friendly little bird. We took him out of his 
cage so I could have him hold onto my hand while I touched him. Then my 
friend put him on the kitchen floor. I moved very slowly and carefully 
because I didn't want to scare or hurt him. He was so quiet. Vignette, who 
at home was well-known for chasing pigeons away from our balcony, was very 
gentle and quiet with this little bird. I really had no idea that she could 
be so different with another type of bird.
There was also a time when at home, Vignette came running inside from 
chasing pigeons away and with my having no way of knowing it a baby bluebird 
came inside with her. I truly know that God cares for every single baby bird 
because this little one was in my apartment for, I am not kidding, five 
days! I kept hearing this sound of a baby bird, but I could never find her. 
Finally one morning I heard the bird making small sounds near Vinnie's bed 
and I asked her to show me where and she pointed with her muzzle and I was 
finally able to pick up this tiny being and take her outside. she was very 
much alive and from what I could tell in good shape. I cannot imagine any 
way other than the loving miraculous care of God bringing this about. No 
food or water for five days is tough for me to do let alone a tiny baby 
bird. God, truly is a miracle worker!
Sheila and Vignette
