Leave it be. The magpies who live by us do this every year. It's always fun watching the short-tails flutterhop, hide under things, and scream to be fed; they still can't find food by themselves, but there's nothing we can do about it. If we had a cat, I'd keep it indoors those few days, but despite the feral cats next door and the foxes and raccoons, the baby magpies almost all do survive to start flying.

This is the beginning of the busy season at wildlife rehab! My daughter got to feed a baby screech owl Saturday. It was so scared, she said, it was all huddled up with its eyes closed. She had to pull its beak open to put some food in.
