Hi biffabacon and a warm welcome to you on behalf of the Staff and Moderators.

I'm sorry this youngster died, but unfortunately it is so common. It's extremely difficult to raise a young bird without a lot of experience.

Hello and welcome, I don't think you will find anyone giving up a baby on here - most of us are into watching the birds in the wild.
