    Trying to protect my Robin's babies :)

    I dont think your crazy at all, just caring and kind :) I personally would put a pad down just to make myself feel better in case they do fall out. They will have a soft landing and you can put them back in the nest if they are still to small to fly. Thank you for caring about them & good luck!

    Wildlife rescue in walsall

    What happened to the baby? I'm just now seeing this post :( I dont know if this is the right thing to do but I would have kept the baby away from any cats or other predators, kept it warm on a heating pad/bottle, squished up bugs in a small amount of water and fed the baby from a syringe. That's...

    please help me

    Ive named him BB :) broke beak ;) and I would like to share the recipe if anyone ever needs help with a hummer they find in distress. Hummers need protein and can only survive on sugar water for 72 hours or less. If they are unable to eat bugs this recipe will provide protein but it will spoil...

    I am proud to update: My Hummer Has Been Rehabilitated!! :) Apparently he was lacking in protein. I mixed egg yolk with his sugar water, put the syringe over his lower beak with his tongue and he drank some. Within 2 minutes I heard buzzing from the other room and it was him flying in the cage...

    Mourning Dove HELP PLEASE!

    I would cover the windshield with a towel or blanket also as Bruce stated so she can't get in there with nesting material.

    My husband is military we have 1 car so I'm at home alone until 3 this afternoon when he gets home. We will bring the hummer to the closest rehabber after he gets here to see if she can help but I'm not sure what to do until then. I love animals and dont want him to suffer. I saw another hummer...

    im new here and have a hummingbird question :)

    He is the most territorial of all the hummers I have and ive even seen him run off wasps and bees so I think it may be a fighting injury but im not sure. :/ he has a a feeder all to himself so I know he's eating good :)

    im new here and have a hummingbird question :)

    Thank yall for the replies :) Ive noticed him rubbing his beak on the side of another feeder and I'm not sure but am assuming he is trying to fix it. I have approximately 20 birds, 6 feeders and he is the most territorial of them all. His beak literally looks like scissors that are slightly open :/
