Biking on a trail through a swampy area today. A bird (small..but not a swallow) decides to fly in front of me and goes straight into the front wheel spokes.
It is trying, but can't get out. I stop and pull the thing out and set it on the ground.

It's obvious the thing won't fly again...it can't work the one wing.

So..I did what I thought was right and stepped on it.

Would I have been better to just let it go and hope it healed??
