i found a baby bird outside of my yard. i cant find a nest so its in my house in a box. it tries to fly and doesnt go so far. i tried to feed her water and she drank. i made the water run down a cone and she swallowed the drops. but i dont know how to feed her. i placed a small wet bread crumb but she wouldnt swallow. please help in informing me about other methods i can use. any pointers on how to feed her or what would be the best thing to do? any form of help.
please help!!!!
We are having electrical problems in our home and less than a 3 days ago it was just and old breaker box. Now a bird has made a nest on top of it and the electrician is due tomorrow! We got close to it and the bird doesn’t move and I fear she’s laying eggs or already has. How and where could we move the nest if the breaker box needs replacing (which it probably does)? There are lots of cats in the neighborhood and we don’t have trees in our yard.
It’s impossible to leave the bird’s nest there. Our electrical problem is a major fire hazard and if it’s not in the breaker box, we’ll leave the nest alone, but diagnostics so far say it IS the breaker box so either the nest gets destroyed or we try to move it responsibly.

I have lots of birds in the yard and want to feed them but when I put out a feeder, it spills and I get mice/rats that come around. (I live on a hill and so we have little field mice) but also sometimes a rat will come (gross). Does anyone know of a feeder that will not spill over? Something sturdy? Thanks!

The hawks sit and stalk the birds in my evergreen trees in my yard.
we feed the birds in our back yard every day. there are blue jays, cardinals, humming birds, etc. but there is this bird that has grayish-brown body with a big red mark on top of his head. is that a wild bird or somebody’s pet? is there any wild birds that have a red mark on their head? i live on long island(just to let you know about the location)

How do I get birds to come in my yard? I purchased a feeder and hung it out, with no luck. I have wild bird feed. Any suggestions.

I’m concerned about the local birds that feed in my yard all winter long, such as cardinals, sparrows, bluejays, etc. During the day, they chirp and gather in the hedges of my yard, but in sub-zero temperatures they would freeze during the night just remaining in the hedges. I want to know where they sleep???
