Gaba, my 3 ½ year old granddaughter, and her mom were at the park today. Gaba was riding her new bike when she suddenly stopped. Gaba was looking down and said to her mom, “There is something down there.” Gaba’s mom looked down and saw something moving in the grass. Gaba and her mom took a closer look and saw that it was a baby Hummingbird. It could not fly because it was so young, so Gaba’s mom found a small box and Gaba went and picked some flowers to put in the box for food. They both admired the baby bird for a little while, then Gaba’s mom called the Animal Welfare office and report what they had found. The Animal Welfare folks came to their location and thanked Gaba and her mom for reporting the baby bird. They said they would take it back to their office and they would take care of the baby Hummingbird.
When Gaba and her mom were telling us the story I could see that Gaba was very proud of herself. Both grandma and I told her how proud we were of what they had done.
Nothing compares to the smile on Gaba’s face when she was talking about today’s event.
