seeds ... s/he seems a bit under the weather.
Lets me get quite close, then startles and flies off, but not far. Not sure if her wing is damaged or what might be wrong - she can fly, but seems to prefer not to.
I'm worried about her. I don't know if there is anything I can do - I have 5 cats so catching her (to do what, I don't know) isn't an option - but she's been hanging around all day today (I'm home today; she might have been here yesterday or the day before).
S/he looks quite well-fed; I put out a lot of seed. Do birds sometimes overeat?
Anyway - I don't know much about birds - but I'm concerned about this little creature.
Any thoughts or suggestions or information appreciated.

S/he is welcome to as much food as s/he likes...

But she was dozing, eating, then dozing ....
As long as all is well with her... I'm happy.
