Re: Baby blackbird held needed

we've had numerous nests in various out buildings over the years which we keep an eye on and have had the odd baby fall out well before they're ready to fledge and have always put them back without any adverse reactions from the parents unless it's because they're used to us, I would always recommend putting them back a.s.a.p at least you've tried as they will definitely be a gonner if you don't unless you have the means to hand feed them or know someone who can.
