Gary....Here is a juvy male pine grosbeak that knocked himself silly. He bounced off a window on the porch and I found him 20 feet from the house right out in the open where the hawks could easily swoop down and snatch him, so I went out and picked him up and held him till he recovered enough to fly off on his own. He sat quietly, unrestrained in my hand for about 5 minutes before he decided he was well enough to fly off.
