Thump! The distinctive sound of a bird hitting a window. Rush outside and see a crippled body on the porch. Gently scooping the warbler up after checking for life, I brought her inside for recovery.
My procedure for this goes like this: Very gently place the bird into a box, close it and and let them rest for a minimum of half an hour. Usually they will recover within that time as long as I keep the box dark,quiet and warm.
I've done it for a lot of birds even a saw whet owl,( imagine putting your hand into a box of needles, wear gloves!)
She recovered fine and was released. A female Blackburnian Warbler. (Dendroica fusca)
