"The nestlings in those days learn to fly and often jump from the nest too early. Citizens will find them on the sidewalk, on the windowsill, on the fence, and take them home to help. However, if a young bird is healthy and unharmed, usually the best way to help is just put it close to the nest, away from dogs or cats. It is important to remember that many birds have adapted to life in the city and still have ability to take care of the small birds”, says Lucia Deutschova from RPS.
