Hurt bird, can anyone help

Marie from Howick

Came across a hurt bird on the side of the road Murphys Rd, if anyone nearby can help the bird would be greatly appreciated.
I got it off the road but it kept trying to bite me it doesn't understand I'm trying to help, it is trying to fly but can't but its wings looks ok but looks pretty miserable and I was unable to keep restrained to put it in my car to take it to a vet, if anyone has a small carry cage and towel and is confident enough to handle it just to get it to a vet that would be great.

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
