Baby Birds – Leave Them Alone

Description:

Just because a young bird appears to be alone – whether on the ground or squawking loudly from a bush or tree – doesn't necessarily mean it is sick or injured. In June, young birds, including this juvenile Northern Flicker, are leaving their nests. And most likely, a parent is near-by and will soon return. What can you do to help? Keep your cats indoors - especially during the birds' breeding season. And leave the birds alone.  If you do find a sick or injured bird, visit NWRAwildlife.org, the National Wildlife Rehabilitators Association.
