Baby Bird - What Can I Do?
23 Answers
We have blackbirds nesting in the jasmine above the door. About 11am, i saw something fall from the nest. It was a baby. Quite large, with some feathers but largely pink. Gently returned it to the nest. 10 mins later out it comes again. Again, gently returned. At some point, god knows when it must have hit the floor again.
I've put it in a small container. Given it some sugar water. Tried to give it a worm, but it wont swallow. It seems to be gasping - whether for water or food, I dont know. If I hold it in my hand it perks up a bit.
What to do? Do I leave it and let nature take its course? Mum has obviously shoved it out for a reason. Or do I try and save the poor wee thing?

Dr Filth I hadnt thought of mashing up the worms. I've been giving it sugar water from an eye dropper little and often. It just shat in my hand!
I think I shall do the decent thing. (That'll be the second bird this week gone it its death at my hands, I suppose I am called Mrs Death for a reason!).
