I can't put it back. I have a brick mailbox with a space under the mailbox for a newspaper. A bird has gone into the area for a newspaper and up thru the holes in the brick and made a nest under the mailbox and had babies. A baby has fallen out of the nest and is in the area where newspapers go. I can't reach up thru the bricks to put it back. It is crying and I just can't let it lay there. I did move it back a bit so that it is out of the sun. When it felt me touch it, it opened up its mouth to be fed and it breaks my heart.
I have called a wildlife center but they do not open until tomorrow and I'm not sure they will take in a baby bird that is only a few days old. Anyone know of how I can save this baby bird????? |
Why can't you put it back in the nest? My sister used to work for animal control, and she said it really isn't true that the mother will reject it. I'd put it back.
Edited: I just saw where you said you can't reach it. Call animal control and see if they can get it in there.
