If the mother dove does not return to the nest then the eggs will cool down. The Dove Eggs and baby birds need the mother doves heat to survive. If she does not return then the babies will die.

How do you look after a baby bird?

Search for a wildlife rehabilitator in your area, and call them. If that fails, call your local veterinarian or humane society. They should know somebody who takes care of wild birds. When you find somebody to take it, take it to their place. You shouldn't feed it unless you are absolutely sure what it eats. DO NOT under ANY circumstances give it water/put it near water. It can drown. You should know that IT IS ILLEGAL TO KEEP A WILD BIRD UNLESS YOU ARE CERTIFIED


What am i supposed to feed a baby bird that f ell out nest?

It is best if you don't feed it yourself. It can get stressed out and/or die. its best to call or bring to a bird sanctuary. Plus its illegal to take care of a baby bird without a licence. Do not touch the baby bird except in emergency or if its injured. Often the mother bird will come back and feed it. But if it has human scent, she will abandon it and it will die.


What happens to baby birds that get scared out of their nest on a windy day?

It is more likely that the mother bird will come back for it, don't worry. If you have waited 2 or more hours and you have not seen the mother bird then gently place the baby bird into a safe shoe box with (clean) paper towels. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FEED IT. Contact your veterinarian, your local humane society or federally licensed wildlife rehabilitator for further guidance. (:

When a person touchs a baby bird egg will mom bird come back?

yes the mother bird will come back. birds do not act as other animals such as deer. in this case the mother may not come back because she is conditioned to be afraid of humans and there smell. birds on the other hand act mostly on what they see. if mother bird never saw you she wouldn't know her eggs were touched. even if she did see that she more than likely would try to defend the nest. in the wild research biologist also go to various bird species nesting places to try and calculate population etc. and this has no effect on a mother bird returning to her nest.

A baby bird fell out of the nest and the mother and father are feeding it still What should you do?

If the bird is still laying there and the mother/father is still feeding the baby bird, the bird must have just fell out of the nest and there isn't anything wrong with it. One of the parents will get it to its nest or get it to a safe place and take care of it. If the parent(s) do not want anything to do with it then the bird is sick and not eating, they just give up. You should place the bird in a warm shoe box with hay and make sugar water and feed that to the bird by using a dropper. You don't want to feed it to much. There are site that tell you directions with feeding a baby bird. :)
