Thanks for this educational posting. This can also go in the wildlife rescue and rehab mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/9974...

I've known to many people who think they can take wild birds from their parents and still have them be okay. this is unfortunate the only time taking a bird out of the wild is okay is if people interfere and the bird needs to be rehabbed.
