This little guy, "Fly", was brought to SOS with head trauma. If he recovers well, he will be released!
Yes Jamie, mother birds expel their babies from the nest when something is wrong with them. It very sad, but she does this to have healthy offspring. There is a possibility your bird got pushed out by a sibling. Sibling rivalry is highly common in birds.
i brought one to a bird rehab just the same age he was in a nest of 4 and had been pecked out and fallen from 20 ft white mangrove.
