Hi all, have been keeping my eye on a family of magpies for a week or so since I noticed the fledgelings around. All hopping around and perching on trees just fine, however today I found one and assume a dog or a person has knocked one of them, I watched it for 15 minutes and it was sitting legs splayed, and when it was trying to move it was dragging itself with it's wing almost like it can't right itself again. Put it in a box when I was sure it was struggling, it's had a couple of tail feathers pulled out and just can't seem to right itself.
There are no wildlife rehab places close enough to me and I don't drive, so not sure what to do now. I'd leave him it if it wasn't a popular dog walking spot and full of cats, just wondering if anyone has any advice on what to do with it. RSPCA didn't pick up, if anyone local to county Durham knows anyone with experience in birds that would also be great. A bit too late for me to sort out a lift to the vet at this hour too, though could tomorrow.
