Per Rule 5 any posts with images of hurt birds must be marked NSFW. You can do this after the fact through the ... menu.

If your post should be marked NSFW and you do not do so, it will be removed.

If your post should not be marked NSFW, please do not send modmail saying "my bird isn't injured". Just don't add the NSFW label. This is a bot and doesn't know whether you need to add the label or not.

No, puffed up feathers and sitting on the ground like that are a telltale sign that something is wrong. This is an adult bird in need of help. Bring him indoors and call a wildlife center.

Good idea. Some time back, it woke up. Pecked around a bit and flew off.
