We found a bird, which was being attacked (pecked at) by crows, yesterday. at 11.18a.m. We brought the bird about size of a hand, into our home, and rang up the royal society for the protection of birds!
They said to place bird in a box in a quite cool room, and one of their agents would collect the same. The bird was still not able to fly it must have fallen out it’s nest! It seemed uninjured but obviously it needed feeding and i tried to mash up a worm for it but the bird ner really ate it.albeit the bird did drink a little water. At 8 p.m. and three more calls to the R.S.P.B. I had to go out. My Son, thought they were not calling and as He is scared of Birds, He put itin our back garden. But a Woman did call before 9pm and albeit hey went in garden could not find the bird. Callus again if you find the bird in the morning.
Luckily the little bird survived and was there this morning, all it needed was food crushed up and a week or so in a secure aviary, so he/she could practice how to fly, as it would try but did not know how too.
So we phoned up the R.S.P.B .we were informed an agent would call today, albeit no time was given .
I gave my Son’s mobile number and my landline number.
Within an hour He had a call from the R.S.P.B. on his mobile.
The same woman that called last night, told to my Son, to take the harmless little bird, to Wood Street vets to have it put down, As she could not be bothered to call again!
I thought that this body of people who are a charity, are there to protect birds, not say put them down cause they can no be bothered to call again!
Can anyone advise me please.
tanking you all that may
The number for the rspca is the same as for the rspb =03001234999
I don’t know what to do I can no look after this bird he needs professional help and time to learn how to fly! That is all he must have dropped from his nest yet she states over phone to My Son, She can no be bothered take him to vets to have put down !
thank you Beau and thank you Wacky, I am going to report her I notice on both their sites one has to report on their site to them in ‘contact us’. I live @ mo; in Barnet.
