May 16, 2012 · I wouldn't release the bird. As you say...there are hawks around and a single white bird will stand out and be an easy target. Do you have a feed store near by where you can post a found notice? Don't give the band number. If someone calls, …

Jan 16, 2008 · yep it was about 24 - 36 hours old - Gee Mum, thanks!!! LOL Ok - so we got the info and the sparrow rescue began and I took night shift, sleeping with an egg timer in 45 min lots as we had some very cold nights, this bird had no sibling to cuddle for warmth and I was unsure of the wheat bag, it was not always constant with its heat - I wanted to keep it warm and not cook …
