Injured Blackbird in Western MA

[niapet]

Long time since Ive posted (but that means Imp has been well!). My daughter brought home an injured blackbird (Broken leg maybe?). She is on her way back to the animal shelter she volunteers at to see if they can help, but they may not take wild birds. Anyone in MA that can help??

Hi, I'm not sure if you've found help for this poor bird yet but you may want to try to Urban Wildlife Rehab:

I'm not sure where in Western Mass you are located but they have locations in Springfield, Chicopee, & Westfield. I'm in northern CT so it was the first place I thought of when I read your post.

Actually now that I look again, the website says they treat small mammals and I don't see a mention of birds. But if you're still in a bind, it can't hurt to call and ask if they can help (or if not, direct you to someone else who can help).
