Wings seem fine, and she is eating well- No visible bleeding, but cocks her head to the side and walks...

    I went down to the cinema today with sandwich bag of seed and there were 9 birds waiting there for me. Then 4 more came to join, one of which was an injured bird. Her left leg turns in towards her right leg. I wondered how I could catch her. The birds here aren't friendly towards me just yet...
