It's good that the bleeding has stopped. If the wound isn't serious, the best thing you can do for this baby is put some medicine on the wound and put it back where its parents can take care of it. It looks fully feathered, so unless the injury is life threatening, he will be fine outside with his parents. Just be sure Peaches can't get to him again. Maybe you could put him in an x-pen outside where his parents can get to him, but you can also get to him to take care of him if he needs it. Good luck and God bless you for looking out for one of His little creatures.
