This depends on the species. Some birds are protected.

There are species which you may be able to look after but cannot release back into the wild.

The best thing to do with a wild bird is to consult a Vet.

If you ever find an injured bird, the first thing to do is put it in a box with an indirect source of warmth. Then you should call your local vet or wildlife rehabilitator.

Can ospreys be pets?

They are a wild bird that is usually not domesticated, so from my knowledge, no they can't. I suppose if you find an abandoned baby Osprey you may be able to domesticate it to become a pet, but otherwise it is pretty much illegal to own one because they are a wild bird. Hope this has answered your question.
