discolé monade Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 i was just starting 'babylon berlin', and i here a thud against the window, went outside and found him, just sort of...lying there, wings spread, legs in an ackward position, honestly thought he wouldn't make it, mid scooped him up, and his beak was open, at least he didn't break his neck. so, must be a broken wing or leg. i got a box to put him in, and as he got in, he just stood there. ok...not sure about the leg, because it was just...weird looking. so, i sat there with him, in the box, him looking at me, beak finally closed. then, he started moving around... then a little jumping, so, i put the box on the roof of the car (because of my cats) and SWOOOOSH he flew out up into the pecan tree. he was so cute. but young. they look like this but he didn't have the red yet, or the fluffier head. SO CUTE. and mean looking. but cute. that is my second animal saving in a week. saved a turtle last week on the highway! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katt_goddess Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Such a little cutie bird. He's all like 'You want a piece of this? All 1 oz. of me will mess you up right here, right now.' Probably an early fledgling - some of them fly like little lead balloons with built-in window magnets attached to their heads. You did the best thing. It's the cold of the ground that usually takes them out in shock if they survive the window so getting them off the ground and some place 'peaceful' usually does the trick. In the fall, I usually end up picking up little migrating birds off the sidewalks in the morning and hold them until they warm up and can fly again. It's fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
