My location is Canada Water/Surrey Quays in London, UK.
A 13 days old baby pigeon was fed by one of his parents yesterday 10:30 GMT (11:30 BST) and has not had any food and water for more than 28 hours. He is lying down in the nest like a dead bird at the moment.
His parents have been feeding him twice a day (morning and late evening) since he was 8 days old. However, they did not come to feed him yesterday evening.
He has been lying in the nest like a dead bird since 8:00 GMT (9:00 BST). Both of his parents came to the nest at 9:30 GMT (10:30 BST) but they left the nest after a brief presence without feeding him and he is still lying down helplessly at the exactly same spot in the nest.
I know they may not be good parents as they started leaving him alone at night since he was 7 days old (I am not sure if it is too early) and every morning he looked like a frozen bird and had to be "warmed up" by one of his parents every morning.
i would like someone who knows how to take care of baby pigeons to hand-raise him as it seems to me that his parents have abandoned him. Even if they had not abandoned him, it may be better for him to be raised by a human being who really cares about pigeons than a pair of pigeons who (which) left him sleep on his own at night when he was 7 days old and let him get frozen the next morning.
The nest is located on my balcony to which I have easy access.
I asked a pigeon rescue organisation to send someone to pick up the baby pigeon almost five hours ago but they still have not arrived.
I would appreciate if someone in London (or other areas in the UK) can save the poor and innocent creature.
