I was one of the original organizers of this organization in 2013. We were the 2nd local chapter in NC after HAWK established in Matthews. So very proud and energized to be a member of Charlotte Wildlife Stewards. I have always had a passion for Nature, having grown up in a rural area of Mecklenburg County. Love my Trees, Love my Wildlife. It it so wonderful to find a group that shares my passion. And the best part is that all of us are dedicated to protecting wildlife through education, engagement, and enjoyment. Get to KNOW us! You will not be disappointed.

I joined Charlotte Wildlife Stewards a few years ago because they had interesting programs on wildlife and nature. The more I got to know the people, the more I wanted to get involved, so I joined the leadership team. It’s been a rewarding experience to help plan events and programs that are fun and that connect people with nature. The best part is seeing the wonder in kids’ eyes when they make discoveries! I believe in the mission so much that I’ve committed to serving as president for the next couple of years. Do yourself a favor and attend our nature programs and events. You won’t be disappointed.

Anytime you find a young animal or bird, it's best to leave it alone or perhaps move it a short distance to a more secure location. The parents are nearby and will return to it. If they have a slight, non-threatening injury as you described, same advice. Otherwise seek out either Carolina Wildlife Rescue or Charlotte Wildlife Conservation Center.
Our advice is to leave them where they are found. The parents are nearby and will return to them. If their life is in danger, move them to a nearby safer spot. We don't perform any kind of rehabilitation for wildlife.
It can depend on the severity of the injury. If it's life threatening, we suggest taking them to Carolina Wildlife Rescue or Charlotte Wildlife Conservation Center.
Hard to say without a site evaluation. You could have the water tested, check for predators, algae build up, fishing theft, or other causes.
This is a complicated issue but the bottom line is to secure the bird feeder in a manner that prohibits the bear from reaching it. A pulley system, bringing the feeder in at night are two options. Google "Bear proof bird feeding" and you will see some considerations.
