Found a baby bird in my yard that can't fly, what should I do?

Question

This bird landed in my yard and can eat and jump just not fly so how can I help him untill he can fly. His parents are in my yard and have been there for a while so they might stay for a while. Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Male | unneutered

It's best to leave the bird alone especially if it's parents are there. Quite often birds fledge the nest a few days before they can fly, the parents will continue to look after it. If it is in a dangerous place in your yard you could gently move it to a safer spot.
