If the bird was found in the ACT,, it should be taken to RSPCA. Wildcare are for wildlife located in NSW.

Postscript to my message below. Wildcare have called back and it appears their bird person is away. I have been advised to drop it
off to West Queanbeyan Vet tomorrow and they will take care of it. I would be much happier if the bird was to go to someone who knew what they were doing. I dropped an injured Black Falcon to the local vet a few years ago and they promptly euthanized it.

Subject: Little Bittern
Sadly the Little Bittern that we saw and reported yesterday has fallen victim to (I suspect) a free running dog. It is alive but injured and unable to fly.
One of my neighbours found it beside the walking path behind his house a short time ago. I have the bird in my possession and have rung Wildcare and am waiting for their bird person to call back. Does anyone have any good ideas on what we should do with
it. My phone number is 6255 8716.
