I am trying to find out if I need to call someone about a baby bird. I am not sure if it is injured but it has not moved from one spot in about half a day so far. I live in an apartment building on a high second floor and I have a back porch with a little table on it and the baby bird is on my table in one spot it has not moved at all not even when I open door or walked out there or whenthe porch light Iis turned on and off. I have not seen any other birds coming by it however there are lots of skunks, oppossums, and raccoons around where we live and they can get up onto my porch. I dont know ho long I should leave it there or if I should call someone to come and get it. I am almoat positive thats its a dove just instead of tanish coloring its a grey and lil spots on it. I just dont want an animal to get it. If u could let me know what to do or who to call that would be great.

Is the bird still there? Could you send a picture of it?
