Injured little dove

birds - little dove 2Isn’t she beautiful?  This little dove was brought in yesterday.  She has an injured wing and can’t fly.  We’ve made her a cosy nest and she’s snuggled down and survived the night.  The first 24 hours are always critical.   She’s looking good now though and is eating.   She’ll stand up and walk round when she is ready.  It’s slow progress with injured birds, keeping them warm and quiet is the best treatment in the early days.
