Help the birds and one day you’ll see them helping you! :)

When I was a child I found a freezing sparrow, My mom took care of it and we let it go in the spring. I am 76 now and it remains one of my fondest memories.

That’s a goldcrest, they are the smallest bird in Europe and are usually very skittish. They are usually found in coniferous or mixed forests. So glad you helped the poor little guy

Kitties make chirps when they hunt. It's also a way for them to inhale their prey scent through their mouth to get more accurate smells. :D

Birds sometimes get drunk from eating rowan berries in the autumn. That's one of the main reasons birds around here crashes into windows, they might look like they're dying when it's not moving after the crash, but it's usually nothing to worry about. It's just chocked. When u put the bird into the aquarium the bird was jumping around in there... I'm happy it survived, probably thanks to the things from nature that u put in there. Small birds need to eat almost all the time to survive. I've read that after trying to help a small bird over here that crashed. I just watched the bird for a while and then it flew away.

4:00 this is called chittering and its a common response when cats want to hunt/attack something but cant. Usually its because theyre behind a window or something. But with cookie I think she knows not to, and shes fighting her own primal urges lol. What a good trained kitty. :)

Thanks for your kindness! I'm a bird rehabilitation center volunteer, and if you don't mind, I'll give you a couple of tips for the future. 1. These birds feed on small insects, which are found on the branches and leaves of mostly coniferous trees. Due to their incredibly small weight and fast metabolism, they are forced to constantly eat, otherwise they can die in a few hours. It is very lucky that you brought plants from nature to the bird, so he probably found food in them. 2. Also, the doctors of our center recommend not to force water the birds that hit the glass. With a concussion, this can cause additional cerebral edema and worsen the condition of the bird. It is enough to put a container of water next to the bird, or wet the food. UPD but I personally think in this case you have done it right: just offered water, so the bird drunk as many as wanted. Birds drink less water than mammals, and it might not be needed at all, but since little guy became more lively after water supply, - it was done for good. 3. If you notice that birds continue to crash into your windows (this happens especially often during spring and autumn migrations), you can hang bright ribbons moving in the wind on the windows - this will scare away the birds. Good luck!

I see how beautiful and loving you are to one of our animal family members. I wish the world was full of people like you kind sir. Thank you for helping this beautiful bird.

Just so people are made aware, this is a Goldcrest. It's actually more alarming to find a Goldcrest that allows you so close, compared to many other garden birds.

The little sounds Cookie are making are called 'chattering'. It means the cat is frustrated or trying to mimic the sounds of the prey.

I love birds so much. A while back I helped nurse a sparrow back to health and it still comes back to visit from time to time. Little guys got a spot on its beak so I know it’s the same one. I leave my window open most of the time when I’m in my room and it’ll just come and chill on the windowsill

Acest videoclip transmite privitorului dragoste, duiosie si caldura umana. Daca toata lumea ar fi asa de grijulie fata de animalute ce bine ar fi! Unii bat animalele, le taie labele,le pun în lanturi, am vazut multe orori! Eu pe cand stateam în alt bloc la etajul 10 ,am fost vizitata de un porumbel calator! Saracul s-a oprit pe terasa, era atat de obosit ca l-am prins cu mana, a stat putin s-a odihnit, l-am mangaiat, i-am dat sa bea apa, avea un inel la piciorus, probabil trebuia sa ajunga undeva! Dupa ce a baut apa si s-a odihnit a plecat!

Nice man. Wished there were more like you in our world. Thank you for taking care of one of God's creatures.

She just knew who to ask help from. Gorgeous bird. Thank you for being so gentle ❤

Honestly it warms my heart how there is still good in this world

Huge respect for kitty for not doing anything to the bird!

4:06 cats trying to lure the bird. Something very rare for house cats

You are truly a kind hearted person. We need more people like you. It appears there may still be hope left in this world.

I cannot believe how lucky we are that such adorable, tiny, and ancient animals can be found in our backyard

Thanks for saving this bird 💕 definitely need more of you in the world

Really, really glad to see the little guy fully recovered from his ordeal of flying into the window, so many birds loose their lives by not being able to see it, putting stickers or tape on the glass certainly helps

Looks like a golden crowned kinglet. They’re so cute! Window strikes are often deadly, so this little one is definitely lucky you were able to nurse it back to health and release it!

I can’t get over how cute those baby birds are opening their mouths at the very end. I just had to keep rewinding and watching it over again. Oh, so cute!!🐦

Aw... I actually had a similar situation a few weeks ago. A poor bird was hobbling around in our driveway, it feet both bent backwards. He was missing his tail, as well. We eventually caught him, and attempted to help him, but, the next day, he had sadly passed. We fed him, gave him water, and put him in the warmest room of the house. Glad to know that there are other people who will help the birds. :)

Thank you for saving the little soul. 🥰 The cat's reaction was funny. 😀

I have had birds crash into clean windows here on somewhat of a regular basis being so close to the woods. Unfortunately when this happened both times the bird did indeed die. Please stay safe and secure in your part of the world. You are in our prayers.

What a sweet and thoughtful little story. Thank you for saving the dear little thing. Now it knows that if he/she ever needs help again he/she knows where to get it. Bravo! That noise your cat made on seeing the bird is a normal feline response. My Siamese used to do it all the time when she saw birds in her territory. ❤🦘

That sound your cat made is unique to when cats see a bird. It’s an instinct for hunting as it tricks birds into thinking a chick is calling them. But your cat is so calm; she’s probably doing it of instinct rather than habit. Didn’t seem like she was hunting. What you did for that bird is exemplary.

4:43 THIS ENDING SCENE IS BEAUTIFUL! THE BIRD IS SO CUTE FEEDING ITS BABIES!

That is amazing. Thank you for loving and saving wildlife, as I do. A gorgeous little bird and I am so relieved that the cat did not get it and it flew off happily.

It is a very meaningful experience to help a distressed animal or fowl. A lovely story.

You can buy special stickers which you put on the outside of your windows to break up the reflection. The reason birds crash into windows is that they see the reflection of sky and trees and think they're flying into open space. Before I got my stickers (bird stickers from amazon), two birds crashed and were lying stunned on the ground. Both times, I picked the bird up (their beaks were open and their eyes closed but they could cling on to my hand) and after ten or fifteen minutes they regained their senses and flew off into a tree.

It is so smile-causing to watch that cat voicing his incatations to the bird: he had seemed to sympathize the weak bird on the balcony, but once the bird occupied his room, he seemed to have more feelings than just compassion. God bless all the people with compassion and mercy to the weak!

3:57 I have 2 cats and they are very tempted by the birds by their nature. I call this sound that cats make "song of the death". One final song for their preys.

Mann i love you. People like you reminds that Humanity is still alive❤

It often happens that birds hit windows and are knocked out or just sitting there, panting. The best thing is to just let them be, if it is cold weather/snow you can pick it up and keep them warm in your hands, but cover them in your cupped hands, so that they are in the dark, that keeps them calmer, because they easily stressed seeing you, being dizzy and not being able to move.

Oh how I love stories like this!! Had a similar experience myself, several years ago, with 3 baby birds. There is no greater heart-warming, than to see our little rescued wards, happily fly home!

You are a very good man . Helping to our smaller brothers is our duty . Regards from Poland .

I loved it. You are a birdsaver!🥰 I loved how you take care of nature!❤🐦🐦🐦

What an absolute treat! You don't see Goldcrests everyday. You have lots of coniferous trees in your garden and that's the habitat they like. I'm very jealous of your lovely encounter.

Im glad you helped the bird, and I'm even more glad that cookie never actually caught the bird

Thank you for helping the bird and thank you koki for not eating him

Cat incantation 😆 I love how he doesn't just help the bird but actually builds a mini terrarium for him.

On voit de cette façon et de manière certaine les gens qui ont un cœur. Merci pour ce sauvetage.

Last year I ran over a rabbit with my car. It was almost dead. I took it home, put it in a box after giving it some water and let it rest. The next day it was fortunately fully healed and I could let it go back into the wild after some nice cuddling. I will miss Miss Bunny 😍

Giving birds water directly to their beaks can be very dangerous for them because of how their breathing system works. They can drown from being fed manually. I'm glad birdie was ok and made a full recovery after their encounter with the window 🙂

I love the cut from the bird high up on a shelf to slowly releasing it! It misses out all the "GET A LADDER, NO ITS OFF AGAIN, ITS BEHIND THE BOOKCASE! COME HERE WE ARE TRYING TO RELEASE YOU😂" Wouldn't be surprised if it visits you again, great kindness for a beautiful bird.

Thank god you helped the little birds out, it could have died and it also looked like it was is so much pain, Tysm for helping the birds out and being kind!!! ❤

this is the humanity (love affection with and help the needy). hats off.

Thanks for helping that adorable little bird.✨👍

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.

The world needs more people like you❤

The world needs kind people like you

Sweet lil birdo! I just love people who care this much about birds like I do 🐦🐦‍⬛🕊️🦜🦢🪿🦆🦩🦚🦃🐧

That was a Goldcrest. The smallest bird in the UK. Also a firecrest of the same family. They live in coniferous woods/forests. So beautiful.

It’s wonderful that there are people like you that help those animals

Well done, thank you!! They live on a delicate balance between survival and death. You did the right thing. In my own nurturing sessions of the same circumstance, I just shelter the afflicted bird outside, but in my loosely closed hands, like a little cave until their strength returns. They generally fly-off in good shape in about 15 minutes. The key is to protect them from the ambient temperature and any precipitation. Until they recover their senses from the concussion, they usually don't try to flee. The real threat to them during that time, is actually hypothermia.

Thank you for caring for this bird Your little cat is so beautiful 🐈

This happened to us with a Kingfisher bird that hit our patio doors as we backed onto the river Welland. I picked it up as it was stunned, took it inside and let it rest on a towel on my knee giving it a drink now and then. I had it for about 3 hours like this, then it suddenly perked up, and after about another 20 minutes I took it outside and placed it on a tree branch overhanging the river, it sat there a bit and then dropped into the water and got a small fish. That was one of those special times I will never forget.

You guys inspire me to be a better human being, keep the good work and thanks for it.

Honestly I LOVE birds. They are just so adorable! 😊

If there were more kind people like you the world would be a better place. All the animals and people could have lived happily.

The world needs more people as yourself and I thank you for your kindness

Thank you for helping the Little Fella 🐦🐦

The sounds that your cat was making- was chatting up a bird, cookie was trying to charm the bird in doing so, trying to make the bird a snack.

The little guy was beautiful. May he have the longest life!

The goldcrest is such a beautiful and tiny bird. You did so well saving it and even luckier to see it up close . Well done!!👏👏👏👏

Thank you for sharing this wonderful story. You are a very kind soul.

Excellent video. Thanks for helping the little birdie. It was beautiful!!!

It was sooo cute! 😍 This video showed me, that there are still good people in this world.

That's brilliant mate , gives me faith in the world . Need more like you .

I absolutely love how despite the fact that Kukie ia a domesticated cat but yet can't fight her hunting instincts. It's so fascinating that somehow, something will trigger their preying instincts.. Gotta love mother nature.. 😍

Great to view such kindness! I feed the birds like most garners/home owners do, I also feed the exhausted bee's with water and honey, nature has it's job too do, so a little bit of human help will go a long way!

That chittering is what my two cats do only when they see birds through the window. They don't make that sound for anything else. What an uplifting and educational video! Thank you!

Humanity in aiding helpless animals at its best as demonstrated brilliantly by the narration, sequential editing of the visuals to tell the story and the music. Kudos.

I have been feeding birds bread crumbs for years. Such a nice guy in helping this bird!

“We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe”. The site of giving water brought life to this poor bird. So glad it was saved.

Well done and people with a heart for animals should be so much more. I send some love from germany to you guys

God bless you for helping this bird. Indeed, you will be rewarded one day.❤

We are so proud of you. ❤️

3:55 lol that cat high on crack

Thank you for helping the little bird.

Most birds run into windows because they can see through the section of the home to the outdoors through the opposing windows. Closing the blinds or curtains on the other opening will reduce the incidence of this happening. I’m glad you helped this bird. Many times they die from the impact.

Thank you so much for helping him ❤

Thank you so much for helping this little chirper♥️♥️🐦🐦🐦

thanks for helping this lovely bird.

I just love stories like this, thank you for saving that little bird!

A little tip for those with glass doors: there's glass stickers you can buy to place on your doors to lesson the chance of a bird crashing into your doors. If you can't find these stickers anywhere, bright sticky notes also work really well! We have a glass door and have had a bird hit the door before (but thankfully was ok!) and afterwards we put sticky notes on the door. We haven't had a bird crash since

Heart of Gold. Thank you. Bless you. Merry Xmas

Wow this is so kind, her babies could’ve been eaten or starve if you didn’t save her, so you saved more than one bird today. ☺️

Indeed, amazing close up shot of a beautiful creature. 2:42

I am amazed that you have never heard Cookie make a hunting "chitter" before. Obviously Stefan is not food as far as Cookie is concerned. But yes, that sound means the murder instincts are going hard, and a pounce is not far off.

Looks like a warbler, really cute and tiny birds. They are very prone to hitting windows and even dying because of it. Very glad you find it in time!

Thanks for helping this Golden Crowned Kinglet!

My cat made those sounds all the time looking outside at birds. It's like a expression of excitement of seeying prey, since they never do it whilst actually hunting. In hunting mode they go into full stealth mode. Cats are amazing!

Beautiful bird and cat.

Thank you for saving that poor Goldcrest!

What a WONDERFUL video...I was feeling quite awful this morning, in pain...but just watching your beautiful video, brought a feeling of hope and happiness. THANK YOU!

Proud of your humanity, good job man.

Thank you for being so kind to the little bird 🙏💌
