OK... call me an old softy, but a baby ANYTHING is just plain fascinating to me. Be it a bird, an animal or a human, they all have a way of turning me into mush. This tiny little fellow really got to me. While his mom and his sibling were very cautious around me, he was absolutely fearless and consumed with curiosity. Several times that week I spotted him trying to peek in the office door to observe me. When I'd take a break and step outside, he'd edge closer and closer to me. I didn't fall prey to the temptation to hand feed him, but it was a near thing. He finally lost interest after a few days, much to his nervous mom's obvious relief.
