Ooh, I hand raised a dunnock a few years ago. A nest of them, all pink and blind and newly hatched had been up turned in the garden, all had died except this one. I hand raised it, which was very hard work (he/she would scream for food in the darkness at about 4am every morning, and came everywhere with me. I eventually released him in a neighbour's garden (one whose cat wasn't a hunter, he'd share his cat food with the wild black birds) :~)
