MY BLOGAVERSARY TODAY: PLEASE PAY IT FORWARD

Noah  the Dove


These  little bunnies, about 6 days old, were attacked by a dog  and orphaned. Two out of the litter of five did not  survive, and these three were not doing very  well.





Noah  is a non-releasable, one-legged homing pigeon/rock dove  that is in the rehab centre.
Noah kept going over to the  bunny cage and looking in -- even sleeping in front of  the door to the cage.
Then,  suddenly, there were only two bunnies in the cage.  But when Noah moved a bit from the front of the  cage to everyone's surprise...there was the tiny  bunny...under Noah's wing....sound asleep! That little  bunny rabbit had crawled through the cage, preferring a  feather-bed, no doubt to snuggling up with its  litter mates!
Now,  they are all together and the bunnies are doing GREAT.  When the bunnies scoot underneath Noah's feathers, he  carefully extends his wings out to surround them and  then they snuggle. When one of them moves and they  start sticking out here and there, he gently pushes them  back under him with his beak!  It is beautiful and  amazing to see...
 
Update on  Noah the pigeon:
We  are Bob and Georganne  Lenham of Wild Rose Rescue Ranch in  Texas , home  of Noah the  Pigeon.
After  finding many posts online featuring Noah and the bunnies  and reading about the many lives he has touched (his  story has been forwarded around the world) we thought  we'd post a follow-up and a few new  photos.

We  knew there was something special about Noah the moment  we saw him.  Although  the bunnies seem to be his favorite, Noah helps out with  many rescue babies here at the Wild  Rose Rescue  Ranch...
Noah's first  litter of bunnies, almost raised and  ready for  release.
Now, Noah  helps out with many rescue babies here at the  ranch...
How  wonderful it is to have a full-time soft-feathered  nurturer here at the rescue ranch!
He cuddles  with all the babies as they snuggle under his warm  feathers......
and he "coos" as if singing them to  sleep with a lullaby.
Noah  is truly, truly a God-send.

He will cover you with His feathers
And under His wings you will find refuge.
Psalm 91:4
LIFE IS WONDERFUL !
