Helper1513


I found a baby bird have have been nursing it for a day, I can not continue to take it to work with me, expecially when it get a little bigger are really starts to chirp. If I put the baby bird where there are lots of other sparrows will they take care of it? i don't want it to die and our local animal shelters won't take it.


Answer
No, other birds - other than the parents of the baby in question - will kill it, not care for it.

Baby birds fledge (leave the nest) several days before they start to fly. They hop around on the ground, and they climb on low branches until their wings are strong enough for them to fly. The parent birds continue to feed and care for the fledglings until they are self-sufficient. If you see a baby bird on the ground, and the bird has most of his feathers, leave him alone. Do not think that he needs to be "rescued." If the bird you have taken has his feathers, put him back - his parents will hear him and take care of him.

If you see a baby bird on the ground, and the baby is naked or he has mostly fuzz, he is a nestling and is not ready to fledge. Try to put him back in the nest. Do not worry about your scent being on him. It won't bother the mother. Birds do not have an acute sense of smell, and the parents will not detect your scent on the baby.

Wildlife biologists and bird banders handle baby birds all the time - they are licensed to do so - and the parent birds never abandon their babies because of this.

If you can not get the nestling back into his own nest, hang a basket (like an easter basket) on a tree limb as close to the nest as you can reach. Place paper towel in the bottom of the basket, and put some grass and leaves in with the baby bird. The parents find their babies by sound, not by sight or smell, so as long as they can hear the baby, they will come and feed him. Placing it on a high limb will keep cats and other predators from getting it, as they would if you left it on the ground.

If you find a baby bird on the ground, and it seem to have been injured by the fall - or if you find an injured adult bird - contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator. You should be able to find one here: http://www.tc.umn.edu/~devo0028/contact.htm or here: http://www.wildliferehabber.org/

Licensed wildlife rehabilitators have the specialized training to care for sick, injured and orphaned wild animals, and they have the required state and federal licenses that allow them to keep the wild animals until they are healthy enough to be released.

Do not take the animal to a vet - vets are for pets, and most vets do not have the expertise to care for wild animals; nor do most vets have the proper licenses that would allow them to keep a recuperating wild animal.

Do not attempt to keep a wild bird and care for it yourself. In the US, ALL native migratory birds - not just endangered species - are protected under federal law (Migratory Bird Treaty Act), and it is illegal to keep any protected bird unless you have the required permits. Penalties for violating this law include fines of up to $500 and/or up to 6 months in jail for each offense.

If this baby need to be cared for by humans, you need to turn it over to a licensed wildlife rehabilitator immediately, and not just because it is illegal to have it. All baby birds learn to recognize and find their own food by watching their parents. When a bird is raised in captivity, you do not just stop feeding it and let it go free - it will starve. A licensed rehabilitator will weigh the bird and assess its condition regularly. They will provide a flight cage for the bird, so it can exercise its wings and learn how to fly. They have a procedure for conditioning a bird to recognize and find its own food, so it can survive in the wild. There is also, depending on the species and the condition of the individual bird, an optimum time of the year, and time of the day, that it should be released, and a particular environment into which it should be released. You learn all this when you study to get your rehabber's license. This is why no untrained, unlicensed person should ever attempt to care for a sick, injured or orphaned wild bird - there is so much more to it than just "what do I feed it?" That is why the federal government requires that all persons who wish to care for native wild birds be licensed.

Graduation and baby dreams? Help?

3 separate dreams about family members being pregnant?

I keep having dreams about members of my family, both male and female, having babies.

1st dream: I had a dream a few weeks ago about someone having a baby, and leaving the baby. Me and my mother then choose to take care of the baby our selves. I fall asleep during the dream, and wake up to the baby crying. I get up to feed the baby, and the baby is laying in a fishtank. When i look in the fish tank, the baby is not there.

2nd dream: I am at some kind of social event. my mother tells me shes pregnant with a baby. My mother in real life is 54, so i know that the dream is talking about me (represented by my mother). She tells me that she has some new boyfriend. I see him, but i'm afraid to say anything to him. He's tall and very masculine, and in the dream that intimidated me.

3rd dream: I dreamnt that i went with some girl who i thought was my girlfriend, to some lake. We decide to get in a boat, and go fishing. When we get in the shallow part of the water, i get into the water and start picking up random things. I find some kind of air purifier/fan, and then i put it back in the water. I ask if we should go to the deep parts of the lake so that we can catch some fish, but my girlfriend is to scared(i think the girlfriend is my anima). When we get back to my house, my mother is there, and she tells me that my brother is having a baby. He's scared to take care of the baby, and that angers me. I start to think about having the baby. I then decide to explore a few rooms in the house. I come across this room where the carpet is filthy, and my old P.E. coach from high school lives in there. For some reason he has an asthma attack (i have asthma in real life) and tries to use some inhaler, but it doesn't work. I go back to the lake and get the air purifier from the shallow river bed, and decide tot ake it back to him.
