A Bird Called Steve Steve is a Starling bird that we found in our front yard! He was just a couple of days old!

There was no nest to be found so we took him in hoping to release him. However, he was imprinted on us so Steve became a member of the family :)

Happy 2nd birthday handsome Steve!!!

This man was forced to give his dog to the Humane Society due to undergoing lengthy hospital stay.

This nurse found out and immediately went to the shelter and adopted his dog.

She brings him to visit daily and will return him as soon as the man is released!❤️

Haven’t posted in a while! (I’m a teacher… nuff said) lol.

Steve is now a fully independent eater! I still make his food but he also gets freeze dried bugs and vitamins to keep him nourished 🙂 His favorites are the mealworms. Unless a fly gets in the house and I swat it to give him. That’s how we bond these days lololololol. Pictures of Steve in the next post 🙂

We’ve only heard one sound out of Steve. A squawk. Lol. I downloaded an app tonight of songbirds and played it for him. He didn’t make any sounds, just tilted his little head like he was kind of confused. I noticed none of the songbirds were starlings. Bluejays, cardinals, sparrows, finches etc. So I went onto YouTube and played him some starling bird sounds…. This guy sings BEAUTIFULLY!!!! Never have I ever heard such sweet sounding chirps from him. He started to respond immediately. So sweet. I will have to play him these sounds everyday. So awesome!!! I kind of feel bad too. Like I’m keeping him from socializing. But he’s way too human imprinted to survive out there….. plus winter…. Thinking of an outdoor cage for him to spend some time out there each day or week, I don’t know… kind of like taking a dog to a dog park 🤷‍♀️

Steve’s in for a treat tonight! Found a beautiful ripe mango at the market so his bedtime snack is strawberries and mango. Trying to get him to try new flavors like the care guide says. We’ll have to see how his dish looks in the morning! Lately it’s been empty! 😊😊😊

Steve is growing up!!!

He lost his first flying feather (all his down feathers have been gone for a little while and his flying feathers came in. He still has to molt one more time to get his big boy feathers lol)

He’s starting to be an independent eater! I still make his food but I put it in a dish for him to eat all by himeself. I still spoon feed him a couple times a day until he is totally independent.

He’s also using his shower multiple times a day. I come home to dirty cloudy water to change so he can use it again 🙂 Steve is one clean bird!

He LOVES his Bonsai tree and is trying to make a nest of it so I need to get him some nesting stuff so he can make himself a little cozy bed 🙂

All in all, he’s doing great!!

Has anyone seen Steve?

Day 20!! 🤎🤎🐦🐦

Day 8 Hi everyone! I’m Steve and I am HUNGRYYYYYY!!!!

Day 6! Baby Steves have to eat every half hour until they are fully feathered! We had some errands to run so that means road trip for Steve! 6/25/21 Not much to report, he’s still doing great! Wanting to move more and more! He likes listening to music lol. Chirps a lot then stops when the music starts 🙂 🐦💙

Day 4! It’s wings are getting bigger and it’s starting to stretch them out more! The eyes are opening more too! It sing really loudly and then I put the radio on and he quiets down 😁 Big fan of 90s alternative rock LOL. Going to upgrade the living conditions and maybe do some jumping practice on the grass outside. 

Update on the nestling. 6/22/21 Day 3 (there was no post for day 2 because I was busy preparing for Steve!)! Pretty sure it’s a sparrow, not a robin. It likes to sleep in my hand lol. Great…. This just means that I may struggle releasing it but I will follow the steps to help with that. It’s eating and pooping really well. It sleeps all night and eats about every 30-45 minutes. 😊👍 I’ve been feeding it a homemade mixture through a syringe and it loves it. Using Emily’s old hermit crab habitat for a house with those under the tank heaters to keep it warm. So far so good.
