Helping a Baby Bird

One day I was riding my bike around my compound when I saw something small moving on the ground. I didn't really care at first (thinking it was a leaf or something) but I realized that it was a baby bird when I was about a centimeter away from killing it. I stopped and got off my bike and I carried the baby bird because it did not know how to fly. I waited for someone to pass so that they could help me decide what to do or where to put it so that a cat does not eat it. Some girls passed with their moms and I told them what had happened. So what we did was we claimed a tree and we put the baby bird in some sort of a nest so that it would not fall.
