How in the world does he find these things?

In the past two weeks Max has found three helpless animals. I don't think I ever once found an aminal when I was a kid. It makes me wonder....how in the world does he find these things? He found a turtle and named him "Armor". He fed him and cleaned up his scratch that was bleeding, loved him for a little while and then let him go.


This is obviously a baby bird. I would guess only a few days old. It was ugly as can be.... There was a bad storm and the nest fell out of a tree and the other baby birds died and this was was trying to hop around. Of course Max swooped him up and brought him home. He got one of Oliver's medicine droppers and put water in it and gave him some. He tried to feed him bread too but I'm not sure that worked very well. After a day Marc made him put the bird under a bush to keep him safe and see if the momma bird would find him. We told Max she did since the bird isn't there anymore.



This is hte sadest story. We went for a walk on Saturday evening and Max was commenting on all the dead squirrls on the side of the road. Just then we saw this bunny lying on the ground and it tried to lift up its head twice. Max swooped it up, tucked it in his shirt and we headed for home. We think she might have gotten run over a little. Her head was bloody and her side as well as her back side. She was pretty lifeless but yet still alive. He wiped her down and swaddled her in a blanket and snuggled her on his bed. We put her in Honey Butter's cage for the night. I thought for sure she wouldn't make it. Max prayed so hard that she would live and was so happy the next day when she found that she was. She needed some real help so we called the Wildlife Rescue Center and brought her in. Max was so sad to see her go. We told him that he helped save her life.


I sure do have a sweet sensitive boy on my hands. I'm amazed at the things he can do.
