So much for trying to help a poor little baby bird...

The other day as I was arriving at work, I saw a little baby bird right in the middle of the driveway. I was afraid someone would run over it, so went inside and put my things down, and went back outside to help the poor defenseless baby bird.

I had 2 pieces of cardboard to scoop it up with. My plan was to just move it into the grass so it would be in a safe place. As I approached the bird, I could hear other birds in a near-by tree, and it sounded like they were "hawking" at me. I continued on my mission (my good deed for the day), and as soon as I bent down to scoop up the poor little baby with the cardboard, a bird swooped down from the tree and hit me upside the head. I screamed and began waving my arms and ran back into the office.

I work for a school district, and being first thing in the morning, lots of moms were driving by to drop kids off at school. That must have been quite a show for them. Too bad it wasn't caught on video... I'd be rich!
