'Our boat was the only refuge': Whale watchers befriend tiny warbler bird they find exhausted 50 miles out in the middle of the ocean

A couple is living their dreams as professional whalers on the ocean. They get to go out and observe these magnificent creatures and document them—they even post much of their content on their TikTok for others to enjoy

Recently, however, these sea dogs came across something peculiar for the middle of the ocean. They were out on a particularly windy day when they noticed some little birdies flying around. Now this was way too far out in the ocean for these tiny birbs to be flying around—and the birdies agreed. Many of them where perching on the couple's boat as refuge from the wind and just as a break from flying around so far out at sea. It turns out that when there are high winds, some shorebirds can get blown out far to sea and it is a treacherous flight back home. 

These little birds in particular were adorable smol warblers, a very desirable bird for first time birdwatchers to get a glance of. One warbler in particular really appreciated the ride on the couple's boat. The little guy just plopped down on the boat and stayed there. He eventually got comfy with the couple and started snuggling up to them for warmth. The bird then decided that the brim of the guy's baseball hat was their favorite place, and road a lot of the way there. However, the winds were just too strong and the couple could tell the smol birb was getting chilly. So they placed the feathery friend inside of a beanie hat and kept him warm there until they docked. 

When they made it back to land they brought their new winged bestie to a bush and placed him on a branch. The little fella didn't want to leave them at first, but eventually hopped onto a branch and looked very thankful. See the entire amazing (and adorable) adventure below!
