SInce covid the uptake of injured birds and fledglings has seen a phenominal increase, more so due to the vets not accepting them and our local vets no longer caring for sick injured birds. I have my own unique way of caring, birds trust and seem to understand they are in good hands. All need to feel loved, have warmth and security, we aim not to have the birds imprinted, in some instances they do
but work hard to reinstate them via slow release. Please think before removing a baby bird from its parents, the fledgling stage is an important learning stage for the birds, only remove if the bird is in danger, try lifting to higher ground etc, or safe shelter. Please also do not keep with a view to let children play with them, they are not pets, the sooner the birds receive help the better chance of a full recoverry. If a bird has a broken wing or injured please seek vets care asap.
