Vinny shared several videos on Instagram of him caring for an injured Hummingbird he encountered while walking his dog, Brutus.

"Oh my God! Oh my God! I was just taking Brutus for a walk, and I found an injured Hummingbird," he said, speaking to the camera while walking.

"It's a little Hummingbird, and he's hurt. It looks like there's something wrong with his wing," Vinny shared.

He doesn't seem to have much experience caring for birds, much less tiny, injured Hummingbirds, but he's stepping up to the plate.

"All right, well, there goes my day of relaxing cuz now I have to try to save this tiny little Bird's life."

He then gets home and starts talking to the bird who he's placed in a box to keep safe.

"Hi your little wing looks messed up," he said to the bird. "Okay, it's scaring me, but it can't bite, right?"

"Hi, it's okay. You're okay. Do you want more water? Oh my God, this is... I'm scared of it," the man admitted.

"I will keep you for the rest of your life if I have to," Vinny continued. "We're going to get you up. Oh, don't worry, you're going to be my new son."

He tried to convince the Hummingbird to drink some water, but the bird seemed too stunned and not sure what was going on to really move.

But Vinny kept trying. He got the bird some water and flowers, joking that he made him a "charcuterie board of options."

In another update, which came two weeks later, Vinny shared that he got a lot of advice on caring for the hummingbird and that he should offer the little one sugar water instead of water.

"It's been 2 weeks, people. The bird is fine, okay?" he told the camera. "I brought him to Project Wildlife in San Diego. I brought him there immediately. I do not know what to do with a tiny little injured bird, so I figured I'd bring him into the professional world," he explained.

But the bird is doing well and healing, according to his update. Vinny hopes the Hummingbird will return to his house, but uninjured one day.

"I'm actually setting up two hummingbird feeders right now to put into my backyard so when they release him, he comes back to me because I need him to come back to me and bring all the little Woodland creature friends, and they're going to make me a dress because I am going to be a Disney princess."

What Should You Do If You Come Across an Injured Bird?

According to the Fatal Light Awareness Program ( FLAP ) Canada, a non-profit authority on bird-building collision issues, there are a few things you should do if you come across an injured bird. The first step is to find a cardboard box that you can poke small holes in, add an unscented towel or something soft and clean in the box for the bird to hold on to.

Once you get the bird inside the box, they need to be treated with great care.

"Put the bird in a dark, warm, quiet space, away from children and pets," the organization suggests. "Avoid interacting with, talking to, and handling the bird, as this will cause it additional stress. Never give a bird food or water."

Then, the next step is to "immediately contact your local wildlife rehabilitation facility." Birds can have injuries that might not be obvious from the outside, and having them evaluated by the wildlife rehabilitation center or Humane Society is the best, and only move.
