I have an interesting story. Two tears ago my landlord was cutting down a bush in the front of the house when low and behold we found a nest with a baby Robin in it. He thought he had stepped on it and injured it and was going to do what any man would do and he was going to kill it. WSell I quickly put a stop to that. I raised her for about 2 months when I realized she was too much maintainence. I gave her to a wildlife sanctuary where they explained to me that what I had been doing for the past two months was all wrong, don’t let them in your home, don’t let them fly on your head etc. Well I gave Mr. Beaker up and a year passed and then another, and then out of the blue about two weeks ago bright and early I heard a noise at the back door. I went to investigate and what I found was Mr. Beaker all grown up trying to fly inside the house. I walked over to the window and pulled the curtain aside and that bird looked straight into my eyes. And every day she comes to see if i’m still here, except on really rainy days. Sometimes she’ll miss a day or sometimes I’ll hear her at like 5 pm but she keeps coming everyday. Amazing I tell you. I believe 100% that it is the same bird from 2 years ago. Is it possible? Do they return to the same place they were born? If so, it truely is amazing.
