TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY BABY BIRD CARE INSTRUCTIONS (for finders who cannot get a baby bird to us immediately) This is an emergency food only, not for long-term! Gently slip dropper over the tip of the beak (beak tip inside dropper) or allow bird to drink from bottle cap. Do NOT get nectar on feathers! Nectar “emergency” solution: 3 parts water, 1 part sugar (dissolve sugar in boiling water and cool). A hummer will drink out of a medicine dropper or shallow bottle cap on its own. HUMMINGBIRD CARE: hummingbirds eat about every 15 minutes. Place the animal in a disposable container (best if no larger than twice the animal’s size) and secure the lid with tape.Do not provide food or water (one exception: see hummingbird care or emergency baby bird care below).If possible, pick up animal with cloth or paper towel and place in box lined with soft cloth (old t-shirt material), tissue (for babies), paper towel or newspaper (adults). Please do not leave animals at the door!įor Bats: call Nor-Cal Bats (530) 902-1918. Our answering service will direct you to an on-call volunteer. If you find an injured or orphaned wild bird or mammal at ANY time of the year, contact us. Thank you for all you do for our wildlife.
