With the busiest season for rehabbers coming up, Spring, I thought I'd post 
the website and phone # for the Wildlife Rescue League.  The WRL is based 
in Northern VA, but their website has a list of other rehabbing groups 
throughout the state.  (Click on "links" on their website)

WRL:  <www.wildliferescueleague.org>
       Hotline:  703-440-0800

Note:  WRL is all volunteer, including the rehabbers and people who answer 
the phones.  Please be patient for a return call.  Personally, if I didn't 
get a call back within 1 1/2 hours, I'd try calling for the name of another 
rehabber.  Keep the injured bird in a closed but ventilated box or brown 
paper grocery bag.  You can place a piece of clean cloth/towel in the 
bottom of the box/bag.
