Hello!! Bones here. I am a city girl who is just trying to help save this planet one sec at a time. I love all animals and recently helped a baby bird that fell ( or got pushed) out of his nest. He had a hurt wing but otherwise was in good shape. I called my local wildlife people and they said they would take him but would destroy him since he is a Starling. It broke my heart so here I am looking for all the help I can get with this little guy.

Welcome to BYC!
Just reading about these. They are an invasive bird that is known for destroying crops and also will kill and destroy nests of native bird species.

My husband would Not allow me to help a starling in anyway.

Hi Bones, it's kind of you to want to help. As @C Siena mentioned, the ER forum may be a good place to get some advice.

Hello, Bones, and welcome to BYC. Starlings can make excellent pet birds. Keep it.

Hiya, Bones, and welcome to BYC!

Sorry to say they are invasive here and we keep them and English Sparrows at bay, but I too have heard of some folks having them as pets.

We're glad you're here!
