Default My cat ate a baby bird that fell off a nest. Are there health risks?

I've heard you need to give cats a shot when they eat birds or else they get parasites that can kill them.

a cat eating any wild creature takes the risk of ingesting parasites, including mice , birds don't present any more risk of this then any other wild creature .

Unless there are obvious illnesses with the birds in your area there is nothing to worry about.
