Mourning Dove Rescue Center at Tucker's Station Farms A little human intervention helps "Shades' return to the wild after an encounter of the bird dog kind. The now happy to be alive bird had trauma and treatment but should make it if she heeds the Armitages' condition of parole. Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) By Barbara Armitage With the temps hovering just above zero this morning up here at Tucker's Station Farms we found - once again - the necessity of opening up the Wild Bird Rescue Center at the farm house aka a cardboard box sitting on a heating vent. Maybe it was the mind numbing cold that contributed to this near disaster but for some unknown reason one of our beautiful Mourning Doves decided to lounge on the wrong side of the backyard fence and found herself in the clutches of Brownie "the bird hater" dog. Fortunately Barbara's Husband was quick to the rescue. While there weren't any visible injuries, the poor bird was minus several tail feathers and was definitely in shock. The mourning dove, named "Shades", because she's 50 Shades of Gray was rushed into the intensive care unit (the guest room) to recover. Except for one small incident when Barbara's Husband opened the lid on the box to check on her and Shades took the opportunity to temporarily regain her freedom (inside the house) the rescue went very well. At 2:30pm CT "a very happy to be alive" Shades was pronounced hale and hardy and released with the following condition to her parole. Stay on her side of the fence.
