UPDATE: The bird unfortunately died while being held overnight. I had
planned to take it to International Bird Rescue this morning and had
followed their recommendations, but the bird was in pretty bad shape.
Any suggestions on who to give the deceased bird to? California Academy of
Sciences? I can ask IBR also when they open.
