    Hello Michael, if the bird looks okay, keep it somewhere warm and quiet, with some bird food and water. As you have used a shoe box, make sure you put air holes in the box. If you had something a bit bigger, like a basket or washing basket (not a solid type) that you could turn upside down, just to give the bird more room, put a towel and some paper towel under it and even a towel over the basket. I have rescued a few birds that have hit the house windows and put them in the cat carrier with a towel over the carrier and in a few hours they have all been okay and ready to be released. You can contact a vets or centre tomorrow. Let us know how you get on.
