    One day when I was walking to work I saw an injured robin on its back with its wings sprawled out on the curb of a busy street. It might've been paralyzed. It was kind of sad to watch because it was like looking around and chirping angrily almost like it was going "WHY GOD?! WHY?!" I almost wanted to scoop it up and toss it off a nearby bridge to its doom and put it out of its misery. It sounds strange but I didn't have the heart to do it and I was already running late and a scorching case of west nile virus wasn't worth it so I left it there. That's my fucked up story of the day...


    I understand..I once missed a college exam for the exact same reason..due to a bird saying (haha) exactly this. But this one seemed like it might survive--so I wound up driving 40 minutes away to a vet..I was allowed to take the test later, but I called the vet and the bird died anyhow. A few years later I missed a job interview for the same type of bird(catbird) I never got that job and again, the bird died. Still, I probably would do it again just because I am obviously crazed. :?


    I've had the same thing happen. I've found they usually do die so it's best just to let them be or take them out of their misery.

      The only place I know of around here where I could take an injured bird would be this nature center in my town where it would most likely be euthanised anyway.

        		 Try getting a dog. I used to have problems with moles so ours dug up our yard to get rid of them.
