Give him a shallow dish, like a saucer or souffle dish of water, put seed in a cereal bowl, and try to rig up a perch in the cat carrier. Birds need to roost. You might be stuck with him until Spring when he moults and gets more wing feathers.

I just went out there to look for feathers. There are no big feathers, just really small ones, and they’re all very downey at the base. He did fly from the ground to a tree, but didn’t stay long, and didn’t even attempt to fly when I picked him up. I’m thinking maybe all he needs is a bit of rest. His eyes are clear and perky, so I have hope.
