I took it home and at first she was really stressed and was batting her wings on the walls of the box but then she calmed down and fell asleep. I tried to contact vets but nobody is available late in the night, so I decided to keep her overnight. I put some water in a bottle cap and some bread crumbs in the box.

Bowen, a wildlife rehabilitator licensed with CT DEEP for small mammals and reptiles (specializing in bats www.bats101.info) By 9:00 AM I had called four vets, but none were USDA accredited, and I was starting to panic, then my friend called to say that he had located one that would see the bird as soon as I could get it there.
