Many insectivorous birds had to be fed...

After an increasing number of young crows, seagulls and larger birds of prey have been brought to the SUST Orphan Wildlife @ Wildlife Rehabilitation Center Bucharest (RO) in recent weeks and months, it is now apparently the turn of the insectivores! Often their first attempts to fly unfortunately do not end successfully and they end up somewhere on the ground, where they are defenseless against dangers like cats, vehicles or heat death.
Swallows, swifts, hoopoes, nightjars and woodpeckers feed exclusively on insects. Unlike many other birds, swifts, for example, are no longer fed by their parents once they have left the nest and are sitting on the ground.
It is therefore very important that these sensitive animals quickly get into the hands of professionals who know about raising insectivores. This is because improper feeding or water instillation can have deadly consequences for these sensitive birds.
