Young robin help really needed!
Found a young robin in the middle of the drive with the adult nowhere to be seen which is unusual for our robins. It's got damage to the left side of its head and is unable to open it's eye. I've had experience in raising young birds before, but not with an injury. It seems very alert dispite this and it's eating. Can anyone give me advice on the injury?
Cheers,
Sarah

Re: Young robin help!
Cancel that peeps. Had to let it go. Probably better for it. It was trying to get out of the box anyway so we thought it best to let it free. I just ope the injury isn't too bad
