You idiot, you never move a wild animal!  Just becuz it looked like it was hurt doesn't mean you should have taken it

well i don't necessarily agree with that....


it's never going to live like that, even if it did it wont be happy

you should take the bird to the nearest  vet...it's in the best interest for the poor bird :/

I would call a local animal shelter and a vet. See what they think. The mom will most likely not take it back not that it has been touched

how big is it? if it's almost an adult then feed it seeds, if it's a baby then feed it liquid baby bird food w/ an eyedropper or spoon...here's some bird recipes...

No I wouldn't keep it
carracer Posted at 11:34 am on July 2, 2008
i think you should take it back to where you found it and see if the mom bird comes back

Roast it on a spit.  Maybe a little garlic to taste.
