Just found a newborn bird on our lawn - being played with by cat but can't work out what it is.
No other birds in area but lots of cats and as it's moving quite a lot, we've put it in a box to 'save'.
It's lapping milk a bit but I can't open it's beak wide enough for it to take lots.
It's got pale yellow down but only just (looks almost like it's just come out of the egg). I reckon something has carried it over and dropped it on the lawn.
It's beak is long for its size and it's black with a white tiny tip on the top and bottom. It's eyes are shut but it's neck is quite long and wobbly.
Anyone got any ideas as to what it could be?
Thanks.
