Half Blind robin baby. *More pics*

[Argranade]

Today I found this little Guy/girl woundering around the streets and people just staring and saying how cute it is well I didnt do that I picked this robin baby up to see why it was on the ground.Well it seems one eyes is blind becase when I shake my hand on that side it does not react but on the other it does and also its white In the middle.

I took it home and fed him/her some yummy food and after that it explored.



The blind eye.

What are you going to do with it? With one blind eye I can see it succombing to predation very easily.

[Argranade]

Im not shur It can not be released with that eye because it wont be able to fly properly so I may call the wilflife centre and ask what they think but if the eye was fine I would release the robin later on like I do with most baby birds.

I may end up keeping this robin dont want anything bad to happen to it.

poor bird! s/he is really cute! it's so great that you help all these birds!

[zoomer]

Poor bird! I'm glad you too her in, she's sure cute! So, you're keeping her?

[IRescue452]

S/he won't be able to see worms with one side either. Robins don't find food by hearing, they tilt their heads to see with their eyes- which are on the sides of their head.

Poor little guy/girl.

It sorta looks from the picture like it has a cataract in that eye? Or at least one of my rats that had cataracts, when you took a pic of him, his eye had that grey looking area in his eye.

Ok I got somemore pics and I plan on keeping the little Guy/girl safe with me since it wont be able to fly properly or eat in the wild.

So lets start with Jack my first robin I got and he shur has grown alot.








Now the other half blind and I do need to think of a name for this robin lol.
