Tiny, fledgling red-billed sparrows were discovered lying by the roadside in the South, weak and frightened. The rescue was gentle and unexpected, as human compassion gave them a chance to survive and return to the wild.
Yes, hello! I found some baby birds. I think they're painted buntings.
Hi, yes, I have the painted buntings I called about. They seem okay, but they definitely need help.
They're very young but responsive. We'll start them on a precise feeding schedule.
You did the right thing by bringing them in. Thank you for everything.
We'll take good care of them. Wonderful news!
They're ready. Good luck out there.
