This is so sad.   After the heavy rains, I was in my back yard and found a dead baby bird.  I looked up and it had fallen through a hole in this nest.  The heavy rains must have been too much for the nest structure and weight of the baby bird.  I think it was a baby robin. So I got some paper towels and placed the bird in the flowers, the lily of the valley and such by the edge of the yard.      

I just got back from Idaho and Montana and was amazed and reminded that although the ground is frozen, wildlife is alive and well.   Cow elk (female).  Elk in the road. Mingling with some horses. Mountain sheep.
