Al Rescues a Warbler

Last Saturday Al heard a thud at the sliding glass doors in the den. Knowing that it was probably a bird, he went to investigate. He spotted a dizzy, disoriented bird on the deck. As Al approached the bird, it became frightened and fluttered away toward the pool deck below and ended up tumbling into the water. Al quickly scooped her out and put her back on the deck in a safe spot to recover from her ordeal. He made pictures of the bird as she recovered. When he went back to check her later, she had flown away. We identified the bird as a female black and white warbler.
