If a baby bird falls out of the nest is it okay to place it back in and will the parent then kill it?

Yes, it's OK to place a fallen baby bird back in the nest. It's a myth parent birds will kill babies that have human scent on them. The parents will care for it if the baby bird isn't ill. Baby birds often end up out of the nest because parent birds "kick" them out due to illness. Seems cruel, but it's how Mother Nature works.

How do baby birds get their water?

When a baby bird is fed by it's parents, most of the time it is with regurgitated food. This food has already started the digestive process, so the baby is receiving all the fluids it needs from it's parents, and the foods they provide. If you find a baby bird, and can not find the nest near by, do not try to give it any liquids. They can inhale the liquids and either drown or develope pneumonia. There are many sites for how to help, and feed baby birds, I've listed some below.
