Robin fledgling

This little beauty was sitting on our sidewalk when I got home this afternoon. He/she seemed to be in some sort of distress (maybe just overheated?), but I didn't see any obvious injury. I was able to approach the baby and -- GASP! -- I touched it. It actually seemed comforted by my voice and touch, although I know I didn't do the right thing. We spent 10 minutes together and then it trotted off into the woods. I don't think it even knows how to fly yet, so how it ended up so close to the house, I don't know!
