It was out of the box and hopping around when I went out for dinner. Not much you can do in a case like this; too young to fly but it can't get back to the nest hole and even if the parents come down to feed it this is a tough neighborhood and full of chances. Sad truth is most birds don't make it through the first year. Us higher mammals are used to thinking all offspring survive, but that's not the way of the world...
