So I am in missouri, and yesterday i found a baby bird. I have contacted many wildlife rehabilitators but two if the three i contacted couldnt take the bird. The only one that can is in st louis which is 2 hours away from where i live. I know where the birds nest possible is and I've looked in the bush multiple time but havent been able to find anything as it is a dense bush. Also i do not know if the mother fully abandoned the nest or not. Anyway i have been feeding the chick aqnd it has pooped, its moveing and it made it threw a night. I want some advice. I know legally i can not keep the bird but i have zero places I can SAFELY put it. I fear for the birds life and just want to know if its a last cause, what I should do to make it more comfortable amd over all some care advice (also, should i contact authorities to let them know about the bird and see if they can do somthing? Im up for anything really.)
Other info i wanna add last minute is i do have bird experience. I have two parakeets, albeit not wild nor native birds but still some bird experience
