There's not a lot else can be done other than turning a patch of soil over as close as possible so that the parents have nice easy access to worms and grubs, enabling them to feed the chick up quickly and get it flying. | They won't call until the parents are nearby. Best advice is to leave well alone unless they are in obvious danger. In which case put them somewhere safe outside. Do not tke them into the house and don't try to feed them. leave them alone and the parents will usually do the rest. If not nature takes its course.
