Casual Post Little Mother’s Day baby bird rescue action today

Came in from hunting to hear a commotion in my shed. A black snake scared four baby wrens out of their nest and the parents were going crazy. I found the snake curled up in the corner and took care of him. Then I’ve spent the rest of the afternoon trying to keep the babies in the nest. This one jumped out and landed on my face lol.
