 This post tries to address some of the common scenarios one is likely to encounter. If in doubt, and the bird is not in immediate danger, then please stay with the bird and contact your local [[Wildlife Emergencies|wildlife rescue]] to get expert advice. It is important to remember that the natural parents are always the best parents. Even the best [[Wildlife Emergencies|wildlife rescue]] with the most experienced rehabbers will not be able to match the knowledge and expertise of natural bird parents.
