NOTE¹: I am not a bird care specialist. Everything I exposed here was based on the research I did before on the internet and what I observed after that experience.
NOTE²: When a baby bird falls from the nest, first check if it is injured (look for botfly and fleas too) to refer to a veterinarian (preferably a specialist in wild animals) or see if the IBAMA or CETAS (brazilian environmental agencies) in your region is nearby to take it it as soon as possible.
NOTE³: If baby bird are not injured, try to put it back in the nest (look for the nest near the place where you found the baby bird), but if you think you may fall again, take care of it.
NOTE⁴: If you choose to use a thermal gel pouch for heating, do not use thin fabric to cover it, as the heat will dissipate quickly.
So, I recommend the towel.
NOTE⁵: Towel is not the most suitable to cover the box that the bird is. Use paper towels (but I think it would be uncomfortable for the bird) or dish towel that IS NOT SHREDDED.
NOTE⁶: The shoe box I chose to accommodate the Southern House Wren was a little spacious so that, if it felt too hot, to help you move around against the thermal gel bag.
NOTE⁷: 0:27 - It is not a mite. More likely to be flea.

I found this three-day Southern House Wren
in the garden of my house.
It had fallen from the nest made on the roof.
I thought about putting it back in the nest, but I decided to take care of it because it was not the first time that something like this happened.
It could fall again.
On the same day that this Southern House Wren fell, two more of the same nest fell, but they did not survive.
From the songs I heard, I realized that I had one more baby bird left. He lived for two more days. I don't know what happened and access to the nest was not favorable.
The purpose of taking care of it was to introduce it to its natural habitat.
As I was unable to get her to eat food that I would find in nature and as I am not aware of teaching her to protect herself from her predators, I took her to CETAS.
IBAMA is responsible for environmental inspections and licenses. CETAS, an organ linked to IBAMA, rehabilitates wild animals and destines them to nature. However, you can deliver the animal to IBAMA, which will forward it to CETAS.
After sending her to CETAS and, after they were able to rehabilitate her, I asked her to hand it over to me so that I could release it close to home, where I found it, as I dedicated myself to taking care of it and wanted to complete the final stage of the entire process. I would feel good.
Unfortunately, they denied my request.
