This little guy flew in through our garage and into the breezeway window
I found him on the floor stunned. So I took him outside and set him on the back of my truck and tried to bring him around. Several of his friends came by to visit and he sat there quite a while before flying off.
His right foot seemed to improve as he came around.
When I was a kid, a Partridge flew threw our living room window and ended up behind the TV out cold.
I took it outside and put it under a bushel basket until my brother and sisters got home from school to show them
Well when I lifted the basket it took off as only a partridge can, with a thunderous beating of its wings. We all jumped back and I don’t think
the kids saw much more than tail feathers.

pretty bird - we don't have those in Minnesota, at least not as far as I've ever seen. Poor fella looks a little ruffed up!
Your little redpole is absolutely beautiful. It's wonderful you had the presence of mind to immediately grab your camera to photograph the little guy. And wonderful that you shared the photographs with us. Thank you.
Maybe he had a mini birdie concussion. I do not remember seeing them in PA, although we have purple wrens which are sort of red and brown.
