The Greeny Chin Chin

The month of May 2015 has been an extravaganza so far, particularly bcos' of my Nellai Vacation. If you follow my FB wall you can follow all the picture action of my Nellai vacation !! But something else too happened in this vacation of which I didnt share a pic yet. 

It was on last friday when I was cleaning my car, I suddenly noticed something crawling on the road. I carefully noticed and realized it was a bird. I went near it expecting it fly but it never flew instead kept crawling. Somehow went very close to it and caught it. I tried to make it fly but it seemed too much frightened. It was then I noticed it was a baby bird which was making attempt to fly but got bruised and now unable to fly. 

Chin Chin on my Hands

I took to my home where it was crowded with all my kutty (younger) cousins. They all were just screaming happily to look at that cute little pie. Things started to worsen when all kutties wanted to have it in its hand and play. It got more frightened. Luckily we had a small cage so immediately transferred to it. 

Credits to all my cousins who meanwhile made several attempts to feed some water and food. They managed to give some water alone. Inside the cage it just took "Statue Mode" without giving any movement. 

Meanwhile my cousin David and bro Mic made attempt to go near the near where it fell to look for its mom and nest but went in vain. 

My cousin david is a specialist in taking care of abadandoned young ones of animals & birds. Once he took care of a Squirrel and later left. So I gave him the responsibility to take care of the bird till it grows. 

The next drama was to keep a name of it. Don't remember who, one of my cousin asked whether it is a boy or a girl. I just said it is yet to become a male or a female still in deciding mode. Uff whatta great escape. Since I am good at keeping names all where asking me, I gave the responsibility to my younger champ bro to name. He kept telling numerous names all Cartoon characters name finally kept "Chin Chin" !!! 

By the time it was dark so we all let it sleep, but my cousin Akku papa was so concerned about her health and for not eating anything. Dinner's menu was Idiyappam, she broke it into several pieces and fed it telling the bird that it is a worm. You guys need to believe she was speaking with the bird !! To our surprise she some how made the bird to eat some Idiyappam to her, and also kept some more in a small bowl near to it and covered it with a towel. 

Next day morning I went near the cage so curiously whether it was alive ! Thank God it was alive and quite active. So I decided to shift it outside the room and hung the cage near the balcony. 

Guess what happened next?? 

Chin Chin suddenly got so active and started attempting to fly away. I was wondering wow and was so happy for it. Soon it became restless. That's when I noticed that it became so active and was responding to the sound coming from the tress. It was her mother bird which was making the noise and in response it was flapping it's wings because it could not make sound. 

Later we requested my cousin Akku pappa to send her with her mom, and she accepted willingly to the extent that it was her who took the Chin Chin outta the cage and left it near a branch of tree. It was a thirll because the bird which was unable to fly the day before also was frightended, got hyper active and flew away with it's mom. 

Just wondering how blessed is our Mother Nature ! Imagine the power of a Mother, she didn't made an attempt to come near the cage, just a gentle sound which was feeble but loud enough for it's younger. I was really amazed. 

Everyone at home were too excited because Chin Chin was back with it's mom. The entire day we kept a watch whether it fell down by mistake again but it didn't to the best of our sight. 

It was there with us for hardly 12 hours but its memories are sweet and ever memorable !! 

Thank God for giving us such a wonderful witness of True Mother's Love !!!
