    I just saw saw a fledgling today.I just walked right past him heading out to work. He was hopping around, and stretching his tiny little wings. It was really cool.

    I found one he was about 3 days old I’ve been taking care of him keeping hot bottle of water with heating pads to keep him warm. I have to grind food to help him eat since mom can’t throw it up. Yes I could probably take it to a place but I don’t think they take starlings. Also the baby is doing very well. Once he’s prepared to learn to fly I’ll bring him near his nest for a hour or so a day so he can watch other birds.

    Just helped a ton. Had a bird nest in our gutter for Spring and decided to leave it alone until the birdies left the nest.
    Came out to the backyard this morning to see a fledgling around near the fence. Thought it was an injured bird until I put to and two together. Then I actually seen the 3rd fledging flap to the ground and the parents fluttering around them from time to time. Very beautiful to see.

    Hello! I live in a suburb of San Antonio.
    I've had both robins (as pictured in this video) and mostly barn swallows on my property.
    There are 2 other stages of baby birds: Hatchling and juveniles.
    Hatchlings are 0-3 days old. The are almost completely bald, and their eyes are closed.
    If you found a hatchling, I doubt very seriously that it is still alive, due to the shock from falling out of the nest, and most likely from coming in contact with extreme temperatures (out of the nest and no feathers = most likely too cold; or if it fell on a patio, porch, or sidewalk--too hot or too wet).
    Nestlings are 3-12 days old, their eyes are open, they can make sound, and have pin feathers.
    Fledglings are approx. 2 weeks old and have down feathers.
    Contrary to what you said in your video, all birds can move around PLENTY.
    Trust me--they can walk, or at least crawl, etc. just fine in search of warmth & seclusion.
    Juveniles are older than fledglings (e.g., 3 weeks or more).
    While juveniles have already fledged, they still return to the nest to roost until migration.
    Juveniles can feed themselves, but still sometimes accept food from their parents.
    Juveniles are full-size, but lack the colors and hues of the feathers that adult birds have.

    • @birdnerd5631
      @birdnerd5631  3 года назад +1

      Yes, thank you! I agree with what you said here, I did not mention hatchlings since this was a what to do if you find a baby bird video, not a stages of young birds growth video, and as you mentioned you are not likely to find one alive. Same with juveniles, they are not normally mistaken for baby birds.
      I don't agree with what you said about them moving around though. If you were to find a nestling on the ground, it would pretty much just be flopping around or not moving at all. I never said they were incapable of moving around as they can make small movements, especially towards the end of the nestling period as they begin to become stronger. I specifically said in the video that fledglings are " able to hop or flutter around. They are also able to hold onto a branch by themselves." The being able to hold onto a branch and fluttering around, testing their wings is the main factor to help people not immersed in the bird world identify the stage.
      Also, the juveniles do not usually return to their nests to roost. A nest is more like a nursery for birds, used for incubating eggs and raising young, after the birds have fledged they do not return.
      Thank you for your comment! :)

    Found a fledgling last night(I didn’t know it was one at the time)a cat had it and I shooed the cat away and other cats were praying on it, he didn’t want to fly and he was breathing heavily and would flutter away if i got close, I kept it in a box overnight and took it to a nature center in the morning, they told me it was a fledgling and to put it back where I found it, so I put it down where I first found it and after about a minute it flew to the hood at my car looked at me one last time and flew away.

    • @OleScrappy
      @OleScrappy Месяц назад

      😮 they always tell us to put them back. That makes me mad. It doesn't take a university course to learn what food is needed for what bird, or any other care. If a flegling can't fly to a safe place then releasing it is a death sentence. A few feedings, for a few days strengthens them for better survival so they can fly to a safer place. Afterall, our Creator gave mankind the responsibility to car for earth and all living creatures on it.

    No choice but to keep nearly full feathered baby pushed 2 times from nest. Perhaps the runt since he was weak, but after third feeding much stronger with healthy poop. I play Swallow bird songs before feeding mealworms and soaked high protein cat food after squishing water off. Thanks for tips on raising. Hope he survives since all wildlife is in danger these days.

I brought it inside and have been caring for it, and it seems to be doing OK so far. I'm praying he will survive so I can release him once he can fly. I named it Jack.

    I found a fledgling, it can’t hop but it has a lot of feathers and also can semi fly (maybe half a foot off the ground until going back down). I can’t release it around my house because there are MANY wild dogs and cats around my neighborhood. I actually have a large tree area that’s secluded behind my house (sort of a trail but there’s large areas of space where there are trees and kind of like a woody area). Can I release it there? I hope you get back to me soon because it’s outside in a box with a nest (one made from actual birds that I found on the ground abandoned ).

    • @birdnerd5631

      @birdnerd5631  3 года назад

      The best course of action is to contact a wildlife rehab. See what they have to say. If it is uninjured and you can see the nest, put it back in. If it is injured put it in a secure, dark, and quiet place to stress it as little as possible and take it to a wildlife rehab. Do not try to feed it and remember to always wear gloves when handling wildlife.

    I just found a young baby bird unmobilized with his feathers developed. I put it in a box with a shirt to make it nest like. I couldn’t find its nest. It is refusing to move (unless I gently nudge it) or eat. Right now the nearest wild life rehabilitation center is 42 minutes away but closed. I’m worried the bird won’t make it through the night. It is warm and dark in my room. I’ve managed to get two very veryyy tiny pieces of very soft soaked dog food in its mouth. So far it is still very much alive but not moving still, or even opening it’s mouth. What do I do????

    • @birdnerd5631
      @birdnerd5631  2 года назад

Mama Robin was a few feet away hopping around on the ground and screeching bloody murder. Anyways, I put the baby back in the nest with it's brother. Maybe 10 minutes later, it fell out again. This went on over and over for maybe an hour and I put the baby back in the nest several times. The next day I went over to check on the birds and sadly, I found the dead baby on the ground. :-{

      If it is a nestling that needs help, often feeding them can do more harm than good. Different species of birds often have very specific diets and getting the wrong food can cause problems. Also, improper feeding of nestling can sometimes cause food to become stuck.

      @@miami410 that's pretty neat man nature will run its course like it's supposed to one bird doesn't make a difference in the world but if that's what you want to do with you're free time have fun with that guy it's a bird eat bird world out there something would have ate it eventually who are you to decide whether or not this bird was supposed to be some starving animals meal could have been the difference between life or death baby birds are a good source of vitamin b carbohydrates protein and occasionally mud but and bubble gut

    I found a baby fledgling today while on a walk with my dog.
    At first I left it alone, but then returned, worried.
    I saw an unknown cat slowly coming towards it, some 10 meters away.
    Luckily I did not do like the video says, and moved into one of the neighbourhood bushes, where I saw other birds hiding.
    While it might struggle, it is better than being eaten by a cat

    I found a fledgling just now outside my door. He freaked out when i first tried to grab him and he hid underneath a piece of outside furniture. after some inspecting, its clear his foot/leg is broken or lame. one foot is perfect, while the other one is curled up and immobile. His parents are nearby, watching. I put him in a box with some water and a crushed beetle. I will try my absolute best to leave him alone now bc when i leave my apartment, the parents fly away.
    unfortunately, they built their nest above concrete, so i bet its common for the fledglings to break a foot crash landing.

    I just went to cover the nest a bit with a very lightweight polythene and made sure it didn't tiuched the nest cuz it was raining heavily but instead the two fledglings hopped out and started hopping in random i tried to keep them in nest but they hopped out again and I'm feeling extremely guilty now

    I'm sorry but this was utterly useless to me. You did not explain anything about caring for a fledgling. Here is a video on how to fix a car: take it to the mechanic....

    The best thing to do is leave it as is, let nature rjn it's course. Unless people cut down their tree, in that case then intervene

    Not sure about this advice. There are plenty of people who have successfully rehabilitated their own nestlings and fledglings. I guess you have to be willing to commit to taking care of them. They say don’t handle too much or get too close because you can imprint the bird and will be difficult to release back into the wild.

    Just the other day I had just driven away from home when I saw a sparrow flapping trying to escape a cat, managed to grab it, it was able to fly so after a rest and a drink we released it in the garden.
