Dad brought home a baby bird that fell out of it's nest. With no nest in
site to return it to, he decided that bringing it home was the next best option.
After doing a little research online, we've been caring for the little guy for
about 3 days now and it seems to be thriving.

Temporary home

What to feed

- From dusk till dawn

This is so precious! There is a robin’s nest on our bathroom windowsill and we have the second round of babies right now. It is so much fun watching the mama feed them, the kids love it! I can’t wait to show them your video…maybe I shouldn’t because they will want to bring one inside.
Awesome how-to video!
my brother found a babay bird, its just like the one in the video. and he’s feeding it now but hes afraid that it will die cause it was lying near a tree, my brother is 22 years old and hes very caring i guess torwards animals. i guess he thinks every little thing in the world has a chance to live and fly from the nest
