Oh no! You’ve found a baby bird on the ground, apparently alone and in distress. Its tiny chirps may pull at your heartstrings, but stopping and assessing the situation is essential.
It can be tempting to spring into action; however, not all baby birds need rescuing. If they do need your help, how to help them depends on a few factors: does this bird need immediate medical attention? And is it a nestling or a fledgling?
Here’s our guide on how and when to assist baby birds. And remember, if you’re still not sure what to do, call your local wildlife rehabilitation center before taking action. |
