Hi Liz, Elaine,Sandie,Shirley,and B.M
Just a quick update about my Sisters fledgling sparrow Jack.
He is about 5 weeks old now and spends his time hopping in and out of his cage and is very tame. Jack sits happily in my sisters hand and has discovered the swing in his cage!.
He sleeps through the night and gets his last mealworms at about 8pm.
I think he will now be part of my Sisters animal family now.
She said thankyou for all the advice you gave in his early weeks.
Any updates and I will keep you posted.

Thats great but watch him next spring he will get the wander lust and won't survive. He will make a great pet as they are so cheeky, if you give him seed don't forget to give him budgie grit. Sems like he is one lucky sparrow. Elaine.

Hi Teresa

thanks for the update, lovely to hear Jack is doing so well and hope he continues to thrive and be happy.

I like watching the wildlife rescue programme on channel 4 in the early hours, they had a dreadful fire but rebuilt the rehab building that was destroyed, that was some years ago but it's so good to see the wonderful work they do.

Hi Ladies,
you are up early as well Liz by the look of things or bed late!
I have just done ironing, put washing in and am about to type up some stuff done on a study day 3 weeks ago.
Sandie Jack is named after our Dad Jack who died earlier in the year. Sister has a hen named after our late mum who is now over 5 years old.I dont know how impressed she would be about her namesake. lol.
