a bird
hello there,
My girlfriends found a terrified bird yesterday and it wouldn't fly away. They couldn't take it home so they hid it somewhere out of any predator's reach and where it could fly from if it could. Anyway, my question is:
If we find that the bird is still there, what should I do? Should I take it home with me? And what am I supposed to do to it ?
I need this urgently please!

Well, I don't advise picking it up because the smell of your hands will make the mom not want to go near it again. A few questions need to go through your mind- how are you going to feed it? I've been in this situation and it's tough. We took a bird that we found in and kept it for a few days before it died. We fed it crushed up water-soaked cat food. Nasty, eh? It worked, well until it died obviously. The mom feeds the baby by throwing up [for lack of better words] the food into the baby's mouth, so it's going to be tough to make the baby bird want to eat it. Good Luck !

You need to take it to the vet. There could be something wrong with it and it would be better if you took it to the vet just to make sure it was alright. Once you take it to the vet, they can handle it from here. They'll release it back into the wild and it will be on it's way home! You just have to take it to the vet though. Good luck.
