Hoping I did the right thing...(moving a lost fledgling bird)

[Orangecroc]

A guest at the hotel just alerted me of a very young fledgling bird sitting in the car park actually by the cars. I went over to have a look and it was just sitting on the road chirping for it's parents attention.
As it was in danger where it was sat, I moved it to the closest sheltered bush as I could not see where it's nest was in the dark. It was quiet as I moved it, but chirped up again as soon as I set it on the ground.

Did I do the right thing after moving it from danger? I wasn't sure where I should move it to.

Under normal circumstances it's best to leave a young bird where it is and its parents will generally find it and feed it, however if it was in danger from cars then you probably did the right thing

What you did seems logical & expedient.

For future reference the RSPB have wildlife advice contact points, though the phone number is only Mon to Fri in office hours

Edited to include that I was refering to wildlife advice 'help contacts'.
