An injured bird can be taken to any veterinary surgery or contact Brent Lodge Wildlife Hospital 01243 641762 or your nearest rescue hospital for advice. Phone us if a bird is trapped, or you cannot capture it and need help.
Fledglings will often be on the ground for a day or more after leaving the nest and are fed by adults. This is normal, but if in real danger take to Brent Lodge Hospital or your local rescue. Pigeon squabs can be blown out of a nest prematurely. If you have a small basket or similar with edges, an artificial nest can be nailed up under some branches near the nest and the adults will often feed. Phone us for advice 01243 825804.
