I found a songbird (I don't know the breed) hopping around near my horses, trying to bury itself under various rocks, woodchips, under the barn wall, etc. at first I didn't think much of it, but I noticed it would hop up, flap its wings, then fall over. I walked closer, expecting it to fly, but it just sat there looking up at me. He flapped when I picked him up (with gloves) but then I set him down and he did it again. flapped, fell, tried again. I looked him over, and he seemed ok, other than his extreme friendliness which is weird for a wild animal. I'm afraid one of my horses stepped on him. he's missing some tail feathers, and he has a bald spot on his lower back. I know he's wild, but I try to save the animals I can. I have him inside a small box outside, to see if he'll fly out. what should I do?
thanks!
thanks!
