Hi I recently found an collared dove on my driveway at first I thought it was asleep I tried to wake it up so my cat wouldn't catch it.Upon closer inspection it appears it cant open its eyes. I have brought it in and put it in a box next to my radiator to keep it warm. He's not moving round much and I'm not quite sure whats wrong with him.

This is an image of his eye http://i.imgur.com/oT5kmwY.jpg

hoping that someone here can help me get this little fella better.

I live in the UK Essex if that helpful
 
Hi, as suggested by Andy, contact a Vet or wildlife rescue centre. The RSPCA may have somewhere around you where you can take it in.
