Do not forget to put a bowl of fresh water outside, for the strays in your neighborhood.
I had out fresh water for a baby bird hiding in the shadow underneath a tree. He was clearly overheated. He was happy for water to drink and bathe in.
Thankfully the mother was close by and came back to the bird, after he got to cool down.
Thank you for always thinking of the animals during heat waves and harsh weather. And reminding others to do the same.
well done. thank you. 🙂
