Abandoned Wild Babies 2. Looking after a baby Galah. Occasionally wild parent Galahs will abandoned their babies. This can occur because of a threat to the nest by a predator, the baby is a runt, bad climatic conditions such as a drought and sometimes just because the parent Galahs are bad at parenting. It is important to state that some babies may have fallen out of their nest, and the parents may be still looking after it on the ground.
In this case, it would be best to put the baby back in the nest, or if it is impossible to do so a safe, warm place where the parents can come a feed it. If you find a baby bird that appears to be abandoned the first thing you should do is assess the situation. Is the bird is on the ground near a busy road?
Is a cat or dog stalking it? Are other birds in the area attacking it? Yes the bird is in Danger If the bird is in danger its time to act. If possible remove any threats out of the area. For example tie your dog up, put your cat inside. If the danger cannot be removed from the area you may have to capture the bird.
Read Capturing an Injured or Baby Galah below. If the bird is not being threatened, observation is the first step required. Find out if the birds parents are returning to feed it. If they are it is best to let the parents look after the bird.
Place it back in the nest or in a safe spot away from any physical danger. A cardboard box with a towel in it makes a nice refuge. Place it in a safe shady place away from cats or dogs, above ground level if possible. You may be required to bring it inside of a night to keep it safe from roaming nocturnal predators.
If the parents are not feeding it or are attacking it you must take further action. You will need to capture the bird.
Note: Against popular belief parent galahs will not abandoned a baby if they watch or sense humans have touched it. Your approach to the bird should always be in a direction opposite from any source of danger. So for example if the bird decides to flees, it will move in the direction away from a busy road.
Depending on how old the bird is it might be possible to just simply walk up slowly and catch the bird by hand. Just be very careful, galahs are known to bite very hard. Especially older injured birds.
Approach the bird from behind, and depending on the birds age, place a minimum level of force on the birds back gently forcing its chest onto the ground. Now move your first hand from the birds back and use your fingers to make a firm but gentle grip around the birds neck.
Lift the bird and hold it tight against your chest. When carrying a bird move in a slow and smooth manner, and try to keep any talking to a whisper to prevent scaring the bird. Some birds will allow you to get really close but not actually pick them up. Throwing a towel or light blanket over them is probably the best method to use. Blankets have the advantage that they block out the light, which temporarily disorientates the bird, making it more passive. To pick up the bird clasp the bird body with two hands from both sides, towel and all.
Then scoop up the towel, bundling it up towards your body. Hold the bundle firmly against your chest. The last thing a sick or abandoned bird needs is to be soaked to the bone. Before deciding to let the wildlife carers take the bird it is important to remember they have very limited resources. Galahs rate low on the priority list as they take resources away from other more endangered species. So if you can, I recommend you try to care for the bird yourself if at all possible.
For those that are considering looking after the bird yourself, please read all of Section 2 of this article before deciding this approach is right for you. Hand rearing a baby Galah is a time consuming process but he rewards are worthwhile.
For pet owners it is the friendly companion that will emerge. Now you have the bird inside you need to find a place to keep the bird. A warm laundry is a usual favourite. The bird needs to kept in a warm place away from any drafts, bright lights, direct sunlight, loud noises and dangers like your cat or dog.. A cardboard box, with a towel scrunched into it forming a hollow works well. This will help it keep calm saving precious energy and allowing it to get plenty of sleep.
