I could probably not have taken cared of this bird as well without the parents. I don't know if this will work for all nestling found astray. Usually, the parent birds will watch over the nestling even if on the ground. Perhaps, keeping them in the same area will help keep them alive and well.

Right now, the bird is still with me. I know some will not like keeping it in captivity. However, it has grown attached to me and the free food. I don't want the risk of having him or her fly in to be intercepted by my over a dozen cats.
Most of the time, my older dog, Dora, who likes lazing around, is tied near its cage.  Some of my cats are not to be trusted with the cage.

Dora has become our official kitty and birdie watchdog. 

My mother used to take care of mynah birds, her last mynah pet lived to 16 years old. By it's standard my yellow vented bulbul. (I thought it was a yellow dunnock.) is still a baby. i still hang a light on its cage at night.
