Baby Galah

[Isac]

I saw this little fellow on the walkway through the lake and it had just fallen from its nesting box, probably in the strong winds we had from a storm or it was trying to fly.

Next, daddy came along to give assistance.

I picked it up and it just clung to me, a very touching moment. I placed it at the base of the tree which has the nesting box, then mummy came over and gave some comfort to the baby.

The next day, I went to check on the baby and there it was, back in the nesting box, ready to have another jump.

Lovely series and story Isac. It's great that you were able to assist.

A special moment for me Alan - you don't get to interact with the wildlife much and this had a great outcome. The bub may have been OK but it was a sitting duck with the cats that roam the area, looking for a quick snack.

Very touching story Isac. How do you think it was able to get back in the nest?

[Isac]

Got no idea John. Maybe it flew with help from the parents or the grabbed it themselves. Someone may have just walked by carrying a long ladder? It's a mystery to me - as in the song by "First Love".
