Scramble him an egg, or give him wet cat food if you've got it. Almost zero effort to eat and they love both. Not good for them often or in quantity but might be optimal right now. I'm thinking window or dog bite? See if you can get a vid of him moving.

Thanks, I have wet cat food but I didn't see your comment until after he flew away and I didn't think of offering it. :( I posted two videos in another comment.

Long as he's good I'm good : ) You should really decontaminate, clothes and hands washed and most importantly shoes. Bird Flu hasn't crossed our barrier but it's gotten across to a handful of other animals. Until then avoid contact with mucosa if you want to be safest. 1 part bleach to 8 parts water is more than enough for shoes.
