Lots of hit by car songbirds lately. These friends are involved in lots of "hormonal flying," and not paying attention to traffic making it easy to get bumped.

What to look for?

🐦Birds sitting out of place
🐦Birds not moving when you approach
🐦"Puffed up" Birds
🐦Birds not flying

If you can walk up to an ADULT bird and just pick the individual up or they can only flutter, but not actually fly away, they need help.

Also, if an adult cardinal isn't latching onto your finger with their beak, and not letting go, he's likely very sick or injured!

Big thanks to Cheyenne who took the time to turn around when she saw this fella stunned in the road.

She got him into a secure box, closed with airholes
Dark is best! And then contacted us right away here (the best way to reach us).

Tragically he died before being admitted but knowing what to do in these urgent situations matters.
