Yo Mike, please remember that he normally would be co-sleeping with other siblings. Your hands are good replacements for their contact and should hold him more often especially after feedings. He really likes the warmth too. It's the difference cuddling with someone before you fall asleep and not having someone to cuddle with. By all means what u do for these bald intelligent orphans is invaluable. I wish there were more strong souls like u in the World, like you. 🤗 You are a fantastic blessing!!! 🤩
Thank you for the information, i rescued a starling about a month ago, it was kicked out of the nest twice. I've applied your teachings and have been able to help it become independent.
It’s nice that he’s trying to save a bird, but he’s saving the WRONG SPECIES of bird. Starlings are an invasive species in the United States. They kill native songbirds, including purple martins. Purple martins can no longer nest in the eastern United States because of starlings and other invasive species out-competing them for nesting sites. This guy needs to quit saving starlings. Kill them. Spend your time and money saving native species of birds.
alan30189 who do you think you are to tell people who they should save and who they should kill ??? I am completely sure that you save no one ! Usually people who don’t do anything to help anyone are the ones who dare to criticize ! 😡😡😡 leave this man in peace

Great video mate. Iv'e had a dry spell of rescue birds at the moment. Which is a great thing :) But i miss taking care of them and watching them grow. Great job brother :) ❤
Thank you, yes here too, now that I work full-time, I don't come across as many birds in need of rescue. I did find a baby Grosbeak recently, whose parents had been killed in the city near a high-rise building. I could not seem to get this bird to eat or cooperate, he was not well and he did not last but a day. I did film some footage because he was such an unusual bird for this area, I had never heard of a grosbeak. Still trying to decide if I should edit this into something or not. Because he didn't make it.
Hi I have a question for you Mike. I have a momma sparrow living somewhere in our roof area. She keeps kicking the baby’s out or they’re just falling. But I have one that is still alive I’ve had him for almost 4 days. Eating and poops are good. He’s energetic and all but only leans on his right side. When he eats his little head is so bent. I’m not sure if maybe he was injured from the fall or sick possible. Which scares me- I don’t know if I could get sick from him. I can’t find any information on line about this. Please is you have any answers. I can’t morally stop caring for him at this point. 🥺
@@grabndragn9551 Bless your cold little heart. If I could give you one piece of advice in this life, I'd tell you to never touch any red buttons, mkay?.....
It's not right what he's doing. This is a grackle, not a starling, and raising and keeping it is completely illegal. He makes instructional videos without even knowing what bird species he's raising. And his feeding advice is pretty terrible too.
We did this when we were kids in the mid 60's in central Massachusetts. One time we had three birds. Elm trees were removed due to disease and when the tall tree came down so did the nest of birds. My Mom, when she was feeding them and they would chirp, she would "beep" back at them. Before they could fly they would run along behind us in the backyard, fly a little run a little. They would take a bath in a puddle on the picnic table. As soon as they could fly we let them be outside all the time. We could walk out on the back stoop and hear them chirping and when we would "beep' back they would fly down to us and land on our finger. The neighbors were amazed! Everyone in the area knew who to bring lost birds to. We raised many birds this way. Even today at 72 years old I'm still feeding birds. Only now I'm in central Florida and they're semi wild hawks. Never captive, always free, but they will sometimes come if I call to them. One will fly down and grab food off a plate that I am holding in my hand. This level of trust took years to develop. The neighbors are amazed.
Very good lesson. I rescued two naked woodpecker nestlings still with closed eyes following a storm. Followed your examples with feeding but also gave them live mealworms. Got in some tree branches for them to peck and jump. They grew so fast in three weeks abled to fight each other and flew away like rockets. One thing I found out about woodpeckers, they have strong sharp peckers with wriggly tongues coming out like serpent. They also attacked their mealworms as if they were snakes. Beautiful experience raising them.

Thank you for loving g him well. We found on may 7th a baby pi k starling with broken foot. Didn't know how to take care of him at the beguinning. He become our beloved 👶BooBooChikilino. He learn some words in spanish and English he was the most joyful and loving 🐦. He died 2 months ago after bei g our daily joy for 7 years!. I miss him soo much still 😢 a lot. I miss his songs and saying" I love you" "gracias Cristo" "Jesus vive" and pajarito precioooso...
God our Creator gave us the privilege to love him and travel with him all around...my prayer partner, song bird and special heavenly gift. I cried watching your video bc I remembered him so much when he was a baby.
Your a wonderful person..just wow!! The love and care...and the ole cliche of when you love something or someone you gotta let them go. Sad but cathartic!
Brings back fond memories of tending to L'il Sub, the baby starling I adopted in 2004. Sub was a tiny bit older, I think, when I got him. He was used to being hand fed, so we bonded instantly. He was a real loudmouth about a week later. I loved it when he'd fall asleep in the palm of my hand. He followed me around like a dog with wings.
OMGosh! that makes sense, thank you for the info. I just rescued a baby starling & I was confused as to why this one looks so different from the one I have. (My baby starling has a bright yellow mouth inside, as opposed the the red-ish mouth of this baby bird).
This video has my heart smiling from ear to ear😍 I wish there were more Dad's like this man❤ The baby is so comfortable with him because he is intuitive to his little needs❤ The baby likes being held by him too and seems so comforted by the warmth of his touch😍
A friendly Hello from Ohio, Mr. Franzman...Your genuine kind, tender, & loving heart moves me to tears...As a lifelong, (passionate) lover of Nature & all animals, I thank you for caring so much about this innocent, little baby, Starling...(I was surprised at how vocal this little guy was...) *: )*. Bless you, dear man...
Hi Mike. Chris and Sara Bellore from Staten Island N.Y. We just adopted a Starling yesterday evening. My wife brought him home from a strip mall where she found him on the ground along rhe wall. He must have fell out of a nest that is above the roll down gates of a pizzeria. Anyway, there he is; "Brooks," as we named him, after the character from the movie, "Shawshank Redemption." We are very grateful for your supportive video. Thanks for the pointers. He's sleeping now. He's a bit older than the one that was in the beginning of the video. I suppose in 30 days he'll be fluttering around if we can keep him healthy. I noticed that you had a Yankee AND Mets shirt on in the video. Cardinal Ring TOO! Baseball Bird Man! Again, thanks Mike, and God Bless you as you are a gentleman and a kind soul.
I found a baby Grackle yesterday while watering. Parents were freaking out. I couldn't see the nest but I also have very tall trees. At dusk I decided it was enough and brought him inside. I ran to the pet store and got grubs and super worms I can gut load. THANK you for the information. Going to apply to raise little Petrie here :)
Thank you! I wanted these bird documentaries to be a helpful guide, and also an entertaining film. I tried to edit a lot of the boring part out, and just leave the great moments, the informative moments, the priceless moments.
This is just lovely! We rescued a tiny Sparrow fledgling yesterday who's about 2 weeks old. She can't fly just yet but we've been watching Mike's video
You probably didn’t need to rescue it if it was a fledgling. Fledglings are supposed to be on the ground and their parents are watching and still feeding them. Although this is a different story if the bird is hurt or injured.

Its amazing how fast they grow. My brother, sister and I used to find baby birds once and a while when we were kids and we were lucky enough that our neighbors could look after them till they were old enough to go back to the wild. That was 30 years ago and I spoke to them recently and they mentioned how much they miss doing it and that they looked forward to each summer because we usually found 1-2 birds a year.
So stinking cute! Made me laugh so much the beak open waiting to be fed. But nothing is so much cuter than the fuzzy tuft of baby feathers on his head! 😍🥰💖that just melts my heart completely! And the Cheeky little face with those beautiful eyes! Adorable! 💓💓💓Thank you for sharing and for teaching some interesting facts.
🌈ALOHA!🌴 i absolutely loved watching this video!! Thank you SO much for your compassion, dedication, and hard work with birds. Keeping a baby bird alive is hard enough but you've helped this little one thrive. There's a special place in Heaven for you and folks like you. Much respect! Take care, stay safe, and thanks again for sharing your aloha spirit with the baby🐥 and for taping this experience for all of us. GOD✝️BLESS, 🌺 AuntyKeli 🌺😁
So loving and caring, etc. Everyone should be like you. This is a lesson, there r some people that can do hurt to others that's the time to leave them alone and do something good. Just care for the wildlife. Nature is so beutiful!!❤
Nice that he'll grow up bilingual- speaking both bird and English😂 He'll have an advantage over the other birds and will likely be one of their Leaders😁
Grateful for your video. I just found one today out in my garden walkway. It's tiny, eyes aren't even open yet. The starling nests i know of are in the eaves of the barn, not where I can safely get it into one. I've been running around crazy trying to find insects and I've given it some bits of the meat of some cherries. If it survives the night, I now have a game plan on other foods to give it. I could never keep up trying to catch bugs. Thank you for the info in this video🙏
Bird Rescue Reminder: Whenever Possible, Put The Bird Back In The Nest. This is job one, because no one can raise the bird better than the parent bird. I never take a bird if there is a viable nest, or any way for the parent to feed it. Honestly, it is best to stay out of it, and let the adult birds do their normal work. Only intervene, when there is no nest, no parent, or if there is immediate urgent need to save the bird's life. Knowing when to help, and when NOT to help, is the hard decision we all make. Encouragement and gratitude to anyone who cares, and anyone who helps these beautiful creatures. Great vibes everyone, fly on! :-)
Mike Franzman Thank you for your kindness and compassion for looking after this beautiful baby bird. I wonder if it will remember you once it flys away? It’s something I’ve always wondered... Thank you for sharing this video and the other one I watched recently.
I couldn't agree with this more. I tried to save a baby bird I found on a canal path, its a LOT of work, and it will most likely die, mine did, and next time I find one I will put it in the trees nearby. The moral of the story is, your good intentions will only get you so far.
The statistics say that most birds that need intervention, do die within the first 24 hours. But if you can get them stabilized, fed, and sheltered, and they last a couple of days, it can actually be a positive outcome.
I wouldn't know the statistics, but I am agreeing with you that most people that don't have the time to dedicate to a baby bird should put it in the tree undergrowth. What you do is admirable, and a great deed, but most people that take on this task, no matter how good their intentions, most likely it will die... sometimes just through stress. Oh and one more point, birds don't like being looked down on, it scares them, they think you are a predator. ;)
4RedDwarf3 I don’t think there was much he could of done as this guy looks fairly tall! I’m sure the bird isn’t bothered that someone is looking down on it...as long as he’s being fed! Unfortunately we are not all capable of leaning lower while talking or feeding an animal...
Well done and thank you. Lovely story to watch and see the starling grow up and thrive. You have a good and gentle nature. Keep up the good work and the information.
@@mikeyfranz: I already watched it; I loved it! My davorite part is where, in an unusual and surprising plot twist, apes did not take over the planet. (Implausible, yet enjoyable nonetheless.)
Thanks for the tips! A momma bird made her nest on the ground and my cat found it. There is one survivor and the momma isn't interested in it anymore, sadly. The baby is very young.. Probably a day or 2 old is all.. Hopefully with your advice I can raise him and set him free!!
Thank you Mike - this is wonderful work caring for God’s creatures ,so that they can return to the woods a lot stronger 👍💖😊 My daughter has had a Robin’s nest in her garage in Surrey,UK
My friend just gave me a starling her sister's found at the base of a tree, I'm super glad that what I did in the past 2 days since taking him in was spot on. He's a little younger than this guy at the time of vid, I've got a little heat lamp near him since I live in a tiny home and it gets cold at night, but he can definitely hear his friends and he's got a cute little paper towel nest with a microfiber blanket. Can't wait till he can move around more and I can show him to my parakeets and let him safley see outside. The cutest ugliest little nugget ever!
You made for both a wonderful and delightful mother and father to this baby starling who would have surely parished otherwise. I wonder how it's doing now? 🌼
This is a baby Common Grackle. I'm raising a Starling, and though they are similar, Starlings have much shorter tails and a tiny hook at the tip of their beaks. That being said... GOOD JOB!!!💖
I loved this video. Uve done such a great job. I run tower cranes and they found a nest that had to remove. I feel so sad for the mother but I have them. Four of them I hope I do as well as you. This video really has helped me. Thank you
I don't understand why anybody would give you a thumbs down! There's a lot of mean people in this world. I guess it's like that fable the Father the Son and the Donkey and various people criticizing them for everything they do they couldn't please anybody even when they finally put the donkey on their back
Thankyou for this and easy steps too understand, I have just rescued 2 babies I'm guessing they're 2weeks old,their home was under the roofing iron and somehow fell in my lounger wall,now I have 2 holes in my wall 🤣🤣.. I have been feeding them worms and bugs 🐛. How long will I have too cook the eggs for please as I don't want them too get any bacteria from the yonk.
I just found yesterday a BABY bird, NOT SURE WHAT KIND OF BIRD BUT THINK ITS A SPARROW BABY, :) and your video helped me so very much, so big-big THANKS!
all these bird channels say dont put this seed out because it will attract the starlings...but i like them around along with all the song birds. they make for an interesting day.!
Yo Mike, please remember that he normally would be co-sleeping with other siblings. Your hands are good replacements for their contact and should hold him more often especially after feedings. He really likes the warmth too. It's the difference cuddling with someone before you fall asleep and not having someone to cuddle with. By all means what u do for these bald intelligent orphans is invaluable. I wish there were more strong souls like u in the World, like you. 🤗 You are a fantastic blessing!!! 🤩

Yes looks as if he's had a bad hair day. 😆🤗

🌈ALOHA!🌴
i absolutely loved watching this video!! Thank you SO much for your compassion, dedication, and hard work with birds. Keeping a baby bird alive is hard enough but you've helped this little one thrive. There's a special place in Heaven for you and folks like you. Much respect!
Take care, stay safe, and thanks again for sharing your aloha spirit with the baby🐥 and for taping this experience for all of us.
GOD✝️BLESS,
🌺 AuntyKeli 🌺😁
Thank you for being such a kind and caring man.
Thanks for being so gentle with birds ❤️😭
So loving and caring, etc. Everyone should be like you. This is a lesson, there r some people that can do hurt to others that's the time to leave them alone and do something good. Just care for the wildlife. Nature is so beutiful!!❤
You are blessed to be doing this.god keep u healthy and safe
Good man with lot of patience you did a wonderful job
Hello from Paris Mike. It was with great pleasure that I watched your videos. It's just great. Thank you !!!!!
I love birds, thanks for the video and valuable information. Welcome
Adorable ! Love his little fuzzy 'hairdo'...Bless you for rescuing and lovingly caring for him...have 'fledged-out' 2 'birdies' in the past. :D
Currently doing this thanks for making these videos, my babies with grow up strong and conquer the bird world
Nice that he'll grow up bilingual- speaking both bird and English😂 He'll have an advantage over the other birds and will likely be one of their Leaders😁

I think you did a wonderful job "Mr Starling " .Starlings are wonderful and their vocals are a joy .Wait until he can mimic 👍 Hope I can find part 2 .
Invasive species
You are good man
You care baby bird
Grateful for your video. I just found one today out in my garden walkway. It's tiny, eyes aren't even open yet. The starling nests i know of are in the eaves of the barn, not where I can safely get it into one. I've been running around crazy trying to find insects and I've given it some bits of the meat of some cherries. If it survives the night, I now have a game plan on other foods to give it. I could never keep up trying to catch bugs. Thank you for the info in this video🙏
you are very kind
Bird Rescue Reminder: Whenever Possible, Put The Bird Back In The Nest. This is job one, because no one can raise the bird better than the parent bird.
I never take a bird if there is a viable nest, or any way for the parent to feed it. Honestly, it is best to stay out of it, and let the adult birds do their normal work.
Only intervene, when there is no nest, no parent, or if there is immediate urgent need to save the bird's life. Knowing when to help, and when NOT to help, is the hard decision we all make.
Encouragement and gratitude to anyone who cares, and anyone who helps these beautiful creatures. Great vibes everyone, fly on!

Thank you for your kindness and compassion for looking after this beautiful baby bird.
I wonder if it will remember you once it flys away?
It’s something I’ve always wondered...
Thank you for sharing this video and the other one I watched recently.
I couldn't agree with this more. I tried to save a baby bird I found on a canal path, its a LOT of work, and it will most likely die, mine did, and next time I find one I will put it in the trees nearby. The moral of the story is, your good intentions will only get you so far.
The statistics say that most birds that need intervention, do die within the first 24 hours. But if you can get them stabilized, fed, and sheltered, and they last a couple of days, it can actually be a positive outcome.
I wouldn't know the statistics, but I am agreeing with you that most people that don't have the time to dedicate to a baby bird should put it in the tree undergrowth. What you do is admirable, and a great deed, but most people that take on this task, no matter how good their intentions, most likely it will die... sometimes just through stress. Oh and one more point, birds don't like being looked down on, it scares them, they think you are a predator. ;)

I don’t think there was much he could of done as this guy looks fairly tall!
I’m sure the bird isn’t bothered that someone is looking down on it...as long as he’s being fed!
Unfortunately we are not all capable of leaning lower while talking or feeding an animal...
Well done and thank you. Lovely story to watch and see the starling grow up and thrive. You have a good and gentle nature. Keep up the good work and the information.
your a very good person for looking after him
Credit to you. I would love to focus my compassion into rescuing and re-habilitating animals and birds as you do. Truly inspirational. Thank you
I just love this, Mike! And what a darling starling!
I thank you sir, and be sure to watch Part Two!
@@mikeyfranz: I already watched it; I loved it! My davorite part is where, in an unusual and surprising plot twist, apes did not take over the planet. (Implausible, yet enjoyable nonetheless.)
Simple editing but captivating! Thank u for your efforts as u need experience n dedicated hands as they r vulnerable at this crucial stage.
So cute. I wish my little rescue was this good. My guys 2. Are very crazy and panics over everything.
I love all birds. How wonderful of you to save his life.

Thanks for the tips! A momma bird made her nest on the ground and my cat found it. There is one survivor and the momma isn't interested in it anymore, sadly. The baby is very young.. Probably a day or 2 old is all.. Hopefully with your advice I can raise him and set him free!!
Thank you Mike - this is wonderful work caring for God’s creatures ,so that they can return to the woods a lot stronger 👍💖😊
My daughter has had a Robin’s nest in her garage in Surrey,UK
Beautiful birds
You are amazing!!! Keep up the amazing work.
My friend just gave me a starling her sister's found at the base of a tree, I'm super glad that what I did in the past 2 days since taking him in was spot on. He's a little younger than this guy at the time of vid, I've got a little heat lamp near him since I live in a tiny home and it gets cold at night, but he can definitely hear his friends and he's got a cute little paper towel nest with a microfiber blanket. Can't wait till he can move around more and I can show him to my parakeets and let him safley see outside. The cutest ugliest little nugget ever!
You made for both a wonderful and delightful mother and father to this baby starling who would have surely parished otherwise. I wonder how it's doing now? 🌼
Maybe it's in part two but he did reply to someone in this comment thread about his progress
God bless you Mike you r great

The lil' Kid and I THANK YOU !
You just saved my butt. . Thank you extremely informative video.
My male cat just brought in a baby bird during. A horrible wind storm
Awesome video thanks for posting!!! 👋👋💯❤️😁
Oh he’s very vocal I love it
Какой вы молодец!
Well narrated, easy on the ears similar to Daniel Stern from The Wonder Years.
This is a baby Common Grackle.
I'm raising a Starling, and though they are similar, Starlings have much shorter tails and a tiny hook at the tip of their beaks. That being said... GOOD JOB!!!💖
Wow! This is startling
Vous êtes un homme merveilleux 💛✨
It is so cute.
I loved this video. Uve done such a great job. I run tower cranes and they found a nest that had to remove. I feel so sad for the mother but I have them. Four of them I hope I do as well as you. This video really has helped me. Thank you
You’ve done this a few times. That’s fantastic! I enjoyed watching your videos. Thanks for sharing!!

Man: “He’s still unable to fly though”
Bird: immediately sticks out his wing
That doesn’t mean he can fly, though. Or are you just pointing out the irony in it?
Kelly G , I’m not blind, do you think he can fly with that skeleton wing????🤦♂️
Kelly G bruh
I enjoyed the videos so much, they are soothing to watch.
I don't understand why anybody would give you a thumbs down! There's a lot of mean people in this world. I guess it's like that fable the Father the Son and the Donkey and various people criticizing them for everything they do they couldn't please anybody even when they finally put the donkey on their back
Thankyou for this and easy steps too understand, I have just rescued 2 babies I'm guessing they're 2weeks old,their home was under the roofing iron and somehow fell in my lounger wall,now I have 2 holes in my wall 🤣🤣.. I have been feeding them worms and bugs 🐛. How long will I have too cook the eggs for please as I don't want them too get any bacteria from the yonk.
Hola que lindo avecita y tan hambriento jaja 😘😘😘
great job Mike al the bedst from Denmark.
Great video mate. Just like your grey squirrel here in the U.K it's now part of your eco-sysytm
Ha ha, yes. Birds, like humans, have invaded all over this great blue planet.
I just found yesterday a BABY bird, NOT SURE WHAT KIND OF BIRD BUT THINK ITS A SPARROW BABY, :) and your video helped me so very much, so big-big THANKS!
Oh man ...good work 👍

Kind hearted soul
all these bird channels say dont put this seed out because it will attract the starlings...but i like them around along with all the song birds. they make for an interesting day.!
Came from Facebook. Very informative! Now I know what to do when I see a baby bird fallen out of his nest, thanks!
