The little Owl that Couldn't


Baby Barred Owl
This is not a craft post it is just a sweet little story and picture about a Little Owl.

The little Owl that Couldn't and he really could not do anything for his self.
One Friday evening my husband and I were out in our back yard and I glanced over at something in one of our flower beds and I said to my husband look! What is that in the flower bed? We walked closer to see and there stood a little fuzz ball it was a little baby owl in our garden and he was all alone.
So we didn't know what to do and his mom was going from tree to tree watching over him and giving a hoot every now and then, so we decided it would be best leave nature alone and that mom would come to his rescue, thinking she would surly take him back to his nest.
Well the next morning we get up and the little fellow is still there in the same spot and we go down there and sit with him and he just sits there in the same spot. Sometimes he would give a big yawn and switch from one foot to the other.
We now decide that mom even though she is still watching him is not however going to rescue him.
Thank goodness for Google. We jump online and get the number for the Wildlife Rescue and they immediately came to his rescue. They said he would not have been rescued and he was very young would not have survived on his own.
The Wildlife Rescue took him and had him checked out and called us the next day and said he was going to be fine and would be taken good care of until he was ready to go out and make it on his own.
So if you ever see a little owl that is all alone don't give it food or water ( it could really hurt it ) and immediately call your Wildlife Rescue.

Oh how I love a rose!

Oh how I do love a rose. This is the first rose from our yard this year. I almost waited to long to take the picture, I added the ruler for you to see how big they are.


The bush this rose came from is a pretty old rose bush. The bushes were here before us and not doing so well so I moved them around and I think they like their new home and are doing very well.

Spring is here and so I will probably have more of the things I grow on the blog as we get into summer. So I hope you will enjoy seeing them.
