I always take the wildlife reporter's view on these things, ie, leave well alone, it is the kindest thing, an injured bird will always be eaten by maggots which in turn will provide a meal for a higher order of animal, ad infinitum. Nature will always bite you back harder for fighting against it. An injured animal that is taken in by a human on 'humanitarian terms' will have an astronomical carbon footprint. We are supposed to be living in harmony with nature....

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
