While BTO and its volunteers monitor birds, we don’t serve a veterinary role for wildlife.
If you have found an injured bird, contact your local vet, or the RSPCA (England and Wales), SSPCA (Scotland) or USPCA (Northern Ireland). Alternatively, find a rescue centre on Help Wildlife.
If you have found a chick alive but out of the nest, you first need to determine whether it is a fledgling or nestling before intervening: follow RSPCA’s helpful guide for more information.
