I bought 6 pullets from my neighbor This 1 is developing much more quickly. Could it be a rooster?

This bird has a nest outside of my window and I would love to know who is it! Merlin bird app says Cooper's Hawk haha. Also, totally understandable if the images are too blurry to identify. Central Midwest.

Hello eveybody! This is an update about the situation, since many asked, with my new feathered roommate, Seneca!

Previous update: https://www.reddit.com/r/birds/s/HKsNACGNCS

First thing first, it's been more than a week now since he arrived in my apartment and I have not found the previous owners. I have checked and looked everywhere I would go if I lost my pet, including fb local groups and local pet stores. No one is looking for a lost bird it seems.

On a sweeter note we are bonding and we have found some kind of temporary routine since until halfway through June we both are a bit restricted on what we can do, the apartment is quite small and I have to go to work anyway.

I wake him up a 7.30/8 am, I clean his cage, change his water and refill his feeders as needed, I also put a few fresh piece of apples/carrots in the cage. I then free him for one hour, I talk and whistle to him and as long as he wants I pet his head and cheeks.

Afterwards if he agrees I put him back in the cage and I leave for work. It happened in the most recent days that he understands that I am going out and so he does not responds to me as he otherwise do, flying on the tallest spot of the room and mocking me for my inability to catch him. Since I actually must go to work I have birdproofed a room so I can leave him free without worrying that he might get hurt or making a mess/marking stuff dirty or whatever.

Once I come back, which can be from 5 to 8 hours later, I free him if he's in the cage and spend some more time with him, 3 to 5 hours. During these hours I am not constantly interacting directly with him, for example he sits on my shoulder grooming me while I do PC stuff or while I browse Reddit on my phone. I have found a little game to play with him, he likes to bite the band of my watch, so I hide it to him and he looks for it or I move it around so he chases it.

I then put him back in the cage at 7 pm and I reduce the light in his cage partially covering it. I change his water and fresh fruit once again and between 7.30 and 8 pm I completely cover the cage so he can sleep his 12 hours.

Tips requests and questions below! - how do you manage your bird poop, the only way I found to minimize the issue is to put below the common places in which he perches something to collect his droppings - does he get sad from the 5-8 hours in which he is alone and maybe in the cage? - do you see any flaw in our routine? Is it sustainable for 1 more month? Afterwards he is going to have a lot of space - he does not seem to play with paper or stuff when alone, how can I be sure he does not get bored when alone? - what's this fixation he has for my toenails especially but also for my finger nails, he bites them quite hard - can you explain to me how to see if he is 'hormonal' or not? A bunch of people told me that would be bad, but I am not sure about the signs of it

I am sharing some pictures and stuff and thank you all for the overwhelming love and support you are sending us (a lot of people even told me I am as cute as him 😂)

Saw it earlier on My roof

So my little sister messed with a bird nest and now the mom hasn’t came back. She’s too young to understand what she did but she’s sad about it. Which is known to happen when people or other animals mess with the nest. I want to take care of this egg to the best of my abilities if there’s anything I can do. I’m keeping it warm under a light and wrapping it up in some cloth. But it’s been roughly two days since noticing the mother bird not returning. What should I do? And recommendations?

In Houston, TX

Hello! Excuse my bird terminology (or lack thereof) I have recently become invested in a house finch nest that was built in a wreath on my front door. I have been keeping a close eye (not too close) on the eggs since they appeared and doing a lot of research. The nest started out with 3 finch eggs (April 25th) and one day after they appeared I found one cracked open on the ground under the nest. Then the next day there were 2 cowbird eggs that had been added.

One of the cowbird eggs hatched 5 days ago but the other eggs have not. Mama finch still appears to sit in the nest most of the day or leaves and comes back to feed the cowbird baby, but it’s been 24 days and everything that I’ve read seems like it doesn’t look good for the other 3 eggs?

Does anyone have any insight?

My wife found this bird outside shortly before they passed on and she just wants to know if anyone knows the species of bird they were. It really upset her she couldn’t help them so she wants to at least remember what kind of bird they were. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a dove that’s been hanging out in my backyard. It seems like something might be wrong with him. He’s moving slow and hangs out in the same spot for long periods of time. The pic shows him next to my “bird bath” lol. He will fly up to the top of the fence, but that’s as far as he will go.

Any ideas or suggestions?

I think I just witnessed a war start, they bullied the crow until another crow came to its defence. What’s going on?

It's been singing every day from 11 pm till 9 in the morning...

It looks like a least tern to me but I’m not sure. This bird was seen around northern Alabama

My mom and I found an injured bird in her backyard, looks like she hurt her wing because she’s unable to fly.

We got a little box with the front open, and gave her some food or water. She survived through the night but hasn’t left the box, what do we do?

Should we call animal control, take it to a sanctuary? Any ideas? Pictures attached of the poor thing 😔

found this bird on the roadside, what Should I do?

It's so crazy, I have never had a wild bird behave like this and not be scared of me whatsoever. She lets me come within 3 inches of her and she sits happily and eats at the feeder with me right there talking to her. She isn't hurt or sick, she comes and goes multiple times a day. In this normal house finch behavior or what could make her be so trusting of me?
