This chap was found on the floor, unable to fly, the report we received was that he had a broken wing.
Fortunately, although very weak and with flat fly, he was well, but unable to fly. He is now recovering with us, he was initially force fed for the first few days, but is now eating himself and eating plenty.
We hope to try and fly him this weekend, so fingers crossed!
