Today, a neighbour back home (Horsham) came round with a cat basket with a baby blackbird (Turdus merula) in it. It was a fledgling that her cat had caught. It could barely fly and needed to be out of reach of the cat. I picked it up, being careful to keep its wings against its side and put it on the roof of our garage. It hopped along the roof and its mother met it at the other end and it flew off.
