Eventually, it made its way to one of our potted plants and perched on a branch throughout the night even when it was raining heavily. We though it would fly into the car porch for some cover but it did not.
We were getting a bit worried for the bird and hopefully, it is resting and fit to fly off the following day but it did not. It was still perched at the same place under the heavily rain in the morning.
As we were leaving for Penang on Wed, we were starting to think that the bird could be actually injured as I saw a few feathers being ruffled, maybe got into a fight with other bigger birds or attacked by some birds...?
Luckily, I remember hearing of Acres Wildlife Rescue and found their emergency mobile no. and sms them with a photo for help.
I am impressed by their prompt reply and follow-up as they came to our house in about 30 minutes to have a look and rescue the bird.
The man gently removed the bird from the branch and placed it in a box and would take it to the vet.
The bird is a type of dove and it seem that its feathers have been clipped or injured. This could have explained why it did not fly away or move when we walked passed it.
We were glad that it has been rescued and in good hands now.
