Determining What's Wrong
Any normal, healthy, wild bird, when approached by a human being, will fly away. If it doesn't, something is wrong with it.Most times one of the following is what's wrong:
-
It's too young to fly away.
-
(see the section called Young Birds)
-
It's been injured and can't fly away.
-
(see the section called Injured Birds)
-
It's sick and too weak to fly away.
