Meet Junior, the adorable brown bird adopted by the father of YouTube user Kenan Atmaca.

When Atmaca’s dad found the bird in his garden, he decided to take it under his wing and show it the ways of the world. That meant two weeks of snack delivery (delicious worms!) and a comfy bed in a bird box before eventually being released back into the wild.

This is definitely the sweetest video we’ve ever seen that ends with an old dude flinging a live bird into the air.
