06.01.2022 BABY BIRDS If you find a baby bird on the ground please DO NOT move them. Unless you have noticed they are physically injured. Baby birds often leave their nests several days before their wings are strong enough to fly well. While these fluttering babies may initially seem abandoned, the parent birds are easily able to keep track of their young and will return to feed and care for the chick.... Releasing baby birds back into the environment can be difficult especially if the exact location of where they were found is unknown. This causes family disruption and they may never be reunited with their parents, so please leave baby birds, they are tougher than you think! While it can be tempting to care for baby birds, understanding what not to do when finding young birds is essential to provide them the best chances for a healthy, wild life. #jervisbayvet #northnowravet #nswsouthcoast @wildliferescuesc

Happy birthday Finn!
