The bird is about one week old and was abandoned by the mother bird.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to feed it and or keep it alive?

Found a baby hawk…?
Last night in my yard. I want to take it in somewhere. But I am not too sure where. It seems to be very healthy, very lively and moves a lot. Should I feed it or anything? I know that baby birds usually eat worms…should I go buy worms? I am not kidding around and love animals very much. Please don’t think I am just playing “games” Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks a lot!
It cannot fly. Its either A) injured or B) just isnt able to fly yet.

Found a bird with broken leg?
This morining I was getting in my car and found a bird in the grass floppin around with ants all over him.So I brought him inside and got the ants off of him and made like a little nest out of hay and and got a cardboard box and put in inside of it then got a piece of cardboard and put it over the box like a roof.so he would have some shade,then gave him some water and wild bird food.I dont know what kind he is but he is small and black.I culdnt just leave him there so ants could eat him.So what else can I do to make sure he survives and his leg gets better?Thanks in advance.
Yeah It turned out he was a grey catbird,and he died,dont know how he was eating and even started flying a little bit off the ground.But then I walked outside for not even 5min.And when I came back he wasnt breathing anymore but his eyes where still open.But at least I tryed.Thanks everyone who ansered.

Found baby birds. What do i do?
So i have been keeping my eyes on this nest. We have a large deck and a robin built her nest on one of the bars underneath it. We had a nest there last year and it was destroyed by squirrels. I had the dech covered on top of where the nest was to protect them from the rain. When i went to clean up after the dogs today the nest was gone. I looked and found a broken up nest, 3 baby birds and a cracked egg. The cracked egg just hatched. Theres no way i can try and put them back. The nest is destroyed. I have them in a box with a towel. They are hungry. How do i feed them? What do i feed them? Is there anything i can do? Animal control says they have their hands full so im at a loss of what to do. Any help would be great
Gunny thats just mean. These are helpless baby birds. What kind of person would i be if i left them there? That would have been cold hearted and as a animal lover i would never do that. They would have been killed or they would have starved to death. If you dont have a helpful answer then dont answer. I didnt meddle in nature. I am simply being a good person and trying to give these babies a shot at life
Thank You to the ones with helpful answers. i called the spca and it actually just put me through to the animal control like before so i found the raptor trust and will be taking them there now. For now i knitted a little baby cap and put a rubber glove with warm water and tissues on top to use as a temp nest and to keep them warm for the time being. They are still see through. Thanks for the help

Found a baby robin on ground?
My husband was working in the back yard right around the time it was getting dark, and he found a baby robin. About 45 min. before that, I was out there and a bird swooped down right in front of my face! We didn’t see the baby then..and I was wondering why that bird had done that, now I know lol. Anyway, I have a cat pen with 3 cats in it, and the bird made it’s way to the edge of it, one of my cats stuck her paw out at it, so I got a paper towel, picked it up, and put it in a shoe box and then I sat the shoe box, with the lid off, right there at the tree where the nest is…did I do the right thing???
