Just after he reached the point where he could get through the night without a feeding, I moved his crate out of our bedroom…<br /><br />…only to wake up to frantic children and the sound of a kitten squalling in mortal distress. After tearing the house apart while severely scolding my daughters for letting the kitten out without me, the kitten was discovered securely asleep in my son’s armpit, and I realized we’d been chasing the call of a catbird…Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-85163993260592300212022-07-07T17:44:28.862-07:002022-07-07T17:44:28.862-07:00You are always educating us and I love it !

I took him out, bathed him, fed him and brought him to the vet the next day. We couldn't love him more.Krabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301573656754652189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-37006655604370412272022-07-06T07:16:53.974-07:002022-07-06T07:16:53.974-07:00Ron,

I use a free Cornell Lab phone app called Merlin. It listens and identifies the various calls with references into their database. The app is a great way to learn the various bird calls.<br /><br />RonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
