What to do with one baby bird left in nest?

Question

A house finch built a nest on top of my awning and 3 babies hatched. Two of them are gone, but the third is still there. It is fully feathered but doesn't seem very active. Should we leave it in hopes the mother is still around or move it someplace safe?

Answer 1

Definitely leave it alone..not all baby birds leave the nest at the exact same time.  The nest IS the safest place for it.  The parents will still feed it  in the nest until it is ready to leave.

Answer 2

just leave it for a little while longer. hopefully the mother takes care of her.
