It could be the baby bird is attempting to learn how to fly which is why he flutters to the ground. In some locations it is not legal to care for a wild animal, so it is best to try and find a wildlife rehabilitation center in your area that can properly care for the sparrow and help him be prepared for release back into the wild once he is healthy enough.
