We will add more sites as we find them, and
welcome suggestions. However:
WARNING: Please
be wary of websites that contain specific diets for feeding baby
wild birds, ESPECIALLY those containing any form of dairy product!
Some baby birds are quite debilitated when found
and may die if they are initially fed anything other than berries! |
