Yet when my daughter walks into the house holding a baby bird… (actually happened this week) Just put it back where you found it. Damn thing was within a week of being able to fly. Put it back where it’s mother can find it!
I think that’s where “don’t touch baby birds” comes from. Baby birds grow up fast, so it’s not uncommon for them to end up outside the nest before they’re quite ready.
You’ve been told wrong, generally speaking, there
