The best course of action here would be to get this bird to a wildlife rehabilitation center. If you are not able to do this then take him to a nearby veterinarian so his injuries can be assessed. Because of the severity of his injuries there is not likely much you can do for him from home. Best of luck. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach
