MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 I can't believe how worried I've been about a little bird! Brilliant news to hear it survived the night - hopefully the pair will both survive the breeding season. Well done to you Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brilliant news to hear it survived the night - hopefully the pair will both survive the breeding season. Well done to you Hehehe tell me about it, I was nearly sick at the thought of having to pull the tick out when I finally caught it.... then worried sick that I might have only helped put a nail in its coffin lol I was shaking after I let it go again lol Just waiting for it to brighten up a bit and I'll get some more pictures, it does seem to be alot more active this morning Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J Darcy 5,871 Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Just another angle on this....... If the tick had kept hold until the LTT was nesting then all the young may have been infested too... Great work Tis Tim.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malt 379 Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Nice one Toni! Looks like that tick had a good feed of the poor little bugger... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I dont think those little birds can possibly have a huge amount of blood in them to start with... The tick had far more than its fair share... no wonder the little thing has been going down hill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tis TM 8 Posted April 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Here's the Tit of the moment!! Its been peeing down all morning, and the window I'm taking the pic's through need a damn good clean, hence the poor quality, but I think you can see that the eyeball (although a little dull) looks intact. I would have thought its having trouble blinking with its eye lids still out of shape and swollen, give it another few days, I hope that will right itself.] It's SO active today, and although still looking a little ruffled, I "think" it looks promising Thanks again for all your kind support people Quote Link to post Share on other sites
