    Hi

    A hawk flew into our window outside about 20 minutes ago, we put it in a blanket in the kitchen for the moment, is there anything we can do to help it? It's just laying down, motionless, eyes are open and it's breathing, could rest help? I think it's a kestrall

    Try getting in contact with a bird of prey rehabilitator in your area from this page http://www.irishwildlifematters.ie/animals/contacts.html

    It's probably stunned or concussed but they should be able to give you correct information about what to do.

    Cheers for the replies, put it in dark room last night on blanket in a box, thankfully opened the box up this morning and the bird flew straight out

    Beautiful animal
