Help! Baby bird fell out of tree

[catnapper]

Well guys, it turns out it wasn't a baby, just a young-ish bird. And our neighbor helped us. It turns out the bird has a big injury on his back end... maybe a cat got to him?

Ah poor thing.

In the morning, your vet can tell you Which vets in the area are licensed for wildlife. DO NOT take the bird to your vet; they have fits when you bring in the wildlife if they aren't licensed for it. A phone call will do.

Is it a fledgling? A young bird tryng to learn to fly and not quite there yet? Or is the injury so bad it CAN'T fly?? Can you tell?

I have no idea what happened ot the bird. We made a "nest" of grass cuttings for him and left him in a safe place. He's gone now. Maybe he wasn't so badly injured? I'm definately not a bird authority (All I really know is they fly, chirp, and poop on my car ) so I couldnt tell you if his injury was life threatening or something minor.

He probably just needed time to get over his shock. Hope he made it
to safety.

I'm glad the baby bird was able to take off Maybe he'll be okay now and find his way back home
