What are the chances? And you can tell how much the young man loves the bird. Truly heart-warming. Thanks so much. I needed that. Blood pressure went down.

And it takes a special person to do it. And obviously that tiny bird has bonded with him.

but I could watch that a million times and never get tired of it.

He reminds me of my nephew. Sweetest kid I've ever known.

The baby hummer is adorable too.

It's enough to almost make me cry...with happiness.

In my old age, I would like to do some ass kicking on crooked pols and bankers but...when it comes to critters big and like this one, the small...we need to be much kinder.

Love and trust between a young man & a vulnerable & very tiny baby bird. Not much can top that.

I love our birds outside. I watch them at our feeder all day long. Some of them have cute personalities. This week Mr. & Mrs. Cardinal's two babies fledged & are now visiting our outdoor diner. I got so excited when I saw them. They just love those sunflower seeds, ya know.

Thank you so much for posting this vid. Made me smile.
