So I found a baby bird... Well, I didn't find it, I found a group of kids tormenting it in the parking lot across the street from my house. It's night time, no mother... So I'm going to try to keep it alive.

I looked up how to take care of it, at least temporarily, in short term as it is late and none of the pet stores or wild life places are open... I have it sitting upon a warm surface, or in my case a steamed up packet of broccoli wrapped in a towel. The ehow thing said to give it wet dog or cat food, so lucky for the beasty I happened to have some left over cat food... Gotta feed the little pest every 15 minutes so... Let's see how it goes... My room mates girlfriend says it'll probably die, she's an animal nut too. I hope that's not the case, but if it does, at least it'll die comfortably in a warm place, well fed.

It's the ugliest little black half fuzzy half naked thing in the world. And at the same time I find it so very cute.

Wish me luck guys, and any advice you can give me, pass it on :)

Ugh people sicken me X_X We rescued a baby mocking bird when i was little but he didn't make it, probably because we weren't properly taking care of him, i was 5 after all >< But at least we tried.

I hope he makes it, he has a great adopted mama now :]

He/she will survive if you take a good care of it.

When I was 10 I found a little baby birdy on my stairs. I take he/she and put it on a warm place. And give always food. I was thinking that he/she would die on the next days, but no. It grow strong and healthy. And when I see it was prepare to leave. It start to fly. I will never forgot that birdy. i think his/her name was Pick.

I remember finding a ugly little bird just like that XD I guessed it might have been a baby crow or something. But I fed it small diced up pieces of hard boiled egg and some little bits of canned dog food (or at least from what I remember, I was only 9 at the time) I kept it alive for about 2 weeks before we took it to a wildlife rescue place. So have hope, I have a good feeling that it has a chance at life.
