Hard to tell, at the moment.
Unless you have had training, call the an exotic animal vet. Or, better yet, call a wild bird sanctuary/rehabilitator/vet center.
Freinds have tried to take care of baby birds they find in their yards in the past, and they have all died. Even if you found the nest the baby came from, the mother likely wouldn't care for it, because it now smells like human.
Call the experts right away. |

| hello, birds have a poor sense of smell, so the mother would take it back |

| Guest, I do not know if that is entirely true or not, since I am no expert. But birds CAN smell, thus they will smell humans. I have seen it happen, the poor babies weren't cared for. |

| bird parents will take care of baby birds not because of a lack of a smelling sense but instictually despite foreighn smells. however the bird you show in the pic is rid of downy fuzz and is a fledgling and was probably dropped from the nest to learn to fly and is definately old enough to be left alone in a safe spot to learn. |

| Baby birds can be returned to the nest or placed back where found as the parent will be around, unlike wild animals such as hedgehogs birds have very poor sense of smell and therefore can be returned to the nest without threat from the parent. Unfotunately much unessary human intervention results in the death of many baby birds each year. |

| Don't believe people who say the mother wont take it back that's bull! Just put ot back if you know where it came from. It's hard to say but it looks like a babby Robin to me. |
