J Darcy 5,871 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Not a cage or aviary bird, so excuse me. This was a house martin juvenile that I was handed back in the floods of summer 2008 (i think). I kept him warm and dry and packed him with food. His training flights to build his muscles up were in my front room! he was released back exactly where he had been found laying in the road and near to death. I hope he lasted long enough to see Africa. 15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 10,871 Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 I tried with a swift last year but it didn't go well and to be honest all the other swifts had well left by the time i'd found it it didn't have much chance of making it to africa even if it had lived.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
