Did it disappear?
Barbra put up a thread and I can't think if it was gen or chat about a baby blackbird. This was my reply in case she is still looking in.

If it is a baby blackbird and injured or not perfect, it may have been abandoned by the parents, sometimes they choose to only feed one or two and don't feed the weakest. However it could just be that it has fledged and not yet learned to fly. Until then it will be fed, usually by dad blackbird until it can fly. Until then it will just hop around on the ground. If you pick it up the parents wont feed it.
