Do I need to remove dead baby finch from nest?

I have newly hatched baby finches, one is moving and alive the other seems to be dead. Do I remove it from nest or let the parents toss it out? The first day they were born they were both alive. Today second day one seems to be dead.
Answers:
Either way. Birds DO NOT abandon babys if a human has touched it... that is a urban legend thing.
Let the parents take care of it. If you put your hands in the nest they will be able to tell and if you touch the baby that is alive they might abandon it because it will have your sent.
let the parents deal with it..
Let nature take it's course.
dont touch it or the parents may reject the live baby birds take care of themselves just the way the are supposed to do
i think u might take it out urself if u take care not to touch the nest or the other baby , maybe use a pair of tongs lol...if u can do that carefully then no worries else leave it theyd probably toss it out themselves then u can safely carry it to the trash or whatever =)
