URGENT: What to feed to a young sparrow?
Sparrows have a nest in our roof. One sparrow fell out, and there is no way to lift him back into the nest.
The little sparrow seems to be alright, nothing broken. It is very vibrant, but it cannot fly. The flying feathers are not fully grown yet.
It is raining right now, and so to protect the sparrow from the rain and cats we put it into an old car, where birds can fly in, but a cat cannot get in.
The elder ones were coming to feed it, as the sparrow was still on the ground next to the house. But I'm not sure whether they will still find it in the car, or for how long they will keep up the feed.
Please tell me what to feed to the little sparrow, and how much.
We have cherry trees, the cherries are overripe and wormy. So I collected some, put them in water for the worms to come out. I can feed the sparrow those worms.
What else?
Thank you.
