Thank you, Kathy. A baby one just learning to fly flew into our glass door at dinner time last night. I prayed for him, and after he laid there for awhile he sit up, and rested there to get himself together, then he flew off the steps and started eating in the grass, so figured he was going to be fine. I love to hear them too! <>< #11477572
