yah worms and crickets, iono if it is still at the stage where the mom or dad still feeds it, so you can try contacting a rescue center that deals with birds or wild animalls.
 
Poor thing. That used to happen at my mom's old house off and on all the time. Never had a rescue that was injured though. Usually in my experience they would just dry off and fly away.

What are you going to do about the leg?

We got the little guy in a popsicle stick splint right now and we are takin him to a vet later today
 
Every baby bird that I've tried to rescue died despite my best efforts.I've had blue jays,starlings,and those little brown birds.The vet should know what to do but good luck.
 
Awwww. Popsicle splint. Even a kitten isn't that cute.
