Can someone PLEASE plunder a good link for me about all the types of wing fractures?

Question

If it helps the bird I'm fostering is a finch...

Answer 1

If you have a pet bird with a broken wing, take the bird to an avian vet.

If it's a wild bird, it needs a licensed wildlife rehabilitator.

Check this link for worldwide listings:

In the US, rehabilitation is regulated by the Federal government and State DNR depts. Services are free to the public, as all native wild birds are protected by federal law.

There are several sites with listing of rehabbers, although the easiest way to find one is to search Yahoo! or Google for "wildlife rehabilitation + your state (full and abbreviated)". Also search on "DNR rehabilitation + your state".

You may be able to find a contact for a nearby rehabber through your local humane society, animal shelter, or police department.

(Edited) This site is much better, because it focuses on broken finch wings: http://www.finches.org/f-bbones.mgi
