Young wood pigeon

[PippinTheChicken]

I found a young wood pigeon in my garden.
It seems to have all it's adult feathers- but it also has those light brown "baby hairs" on it (sorry idk much about pigeons)
It still has a very thin baby beak.
It has no injuries and is walking fine

I heard that wood pigeons don't leave the nest until fully grown so maybe it fell out the nest?

It did a very wobbly flight and is now sleeping on the chicken run roof.
It's safe there during the day since it's warm. But I don't know what to do if it's still up there at night (predators, cold, etc).

I don't have any wildlife centres near me and I'm quarantining so I can't drive or go anywhere.

Can't get a good pic.

He untucked his head so I managed to get some more photos.

He woke up and is walking around up there, eating fallen berries.

Did some research and I think it's around 15-20 days old

It moved to the edge of the roof. I put some seeds there but he didn't find them.

It's gonna get dark and cold soon. What should I do?

If you are able to grab the bird just take it inside and feed for a few days before the bird is ready to go

Update: it flew away, then came back, but it flew away again before nighttime. It came back this morning but left again

Sounds like it’s doing good for a fledgling.

If it is flying on its own like you say and you have seen it looking for food I wouldn’t worry too much
