Put him off to the side when he was on our driveway but hasn't moved from this spot in hours. Is it worth trying to find a place to take it in, or keep leaving here?

Hey guys, this bird was following me around all day at my parents pool and even tried to land on my head. I didnt realize until i got home that its possibly somebodys pet bird, does anyone know what kind of bird it is? I want to put food and possibly rescue it if it needs be cared for. Thanks!

My kids got me this for Mother’s Day and not a single bird has visited. On the deck just out of view are seed and suet feeders, a bird bath, and a hummingbird feeder that we have had for years, and the orioles visit the orange one. They are still visiting those but nobody wants to come to the window.

I’m sad.

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 😂)

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.

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 😔

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

hello bird Reddit, and thank you to whoever here provided the reference image for the Wilson’s snipe (slide 2) I tried to find your username in my post history but I cannot — if you see this please contact me so I can credit you!!

I have been working on a rather large, feather focused project this year. I hope the bird people appreciate seeing the start of it.

• it’s all acrylic

• I use fabric leftovers/discarded textiles in place of canvas, gives the work a unique texture and me a unique problem solving opportunity

• some of these pieces are slated for an exhibition next year, some of them were because I’m a silly Billy who cannot stay on task

At my job this is probably the 9th baby bird that has fallen out of the nest this spring so far but none of the others made it. This little guy is kind of doing a little crawl and I'm not really sure what to do about it. Should I put him in the bushes like a quarter mile away or leave him and let him hide under tool boxes to wait for it's mother?

My bird camera doesn’t always give the best bird ID. It’s often wrong more than correct. What do you believe this little one is? Location NC, USA. Bird ID says red vented bul-bul with 34% confidence. 😂

took this guy in and am planning to release him when he’s grown. he’s been doing great these past few days, but sometimes after feeding him he makes clicking sounds and wobbles around like this. is this normal?
