Rescued Tufted Titmouse

There is an interesting story with this photo. We had birds nesting in our vent that goes from the stove to the outside. This little baby titmouse must have flown the wrong direction in his attempt to fly, because he got stuck in the vent above our microwave.

We kept hearing this chirping noise that sounded like it was coming from inside the house.

We opened up the faceboard above the microwave and we heard little feathers hitting the metal of the vent.

We pried the vent open and out flew the bird.

I took it outside to set it free and it sat in my hands. It was a little stunned I guess, but I also feel this was my reward for rescuing it!
