You could put a cat in the garage and then just clean up the feathers when you get home 
Alternatively, they will probably be fine if it doesn't get too hot in there, then just open up the garage tonight. If you think it will be really hot in the garage, put out a shallow bowl of water for them.

NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! First off I don't own cats, and second I HATE them.
Yes, it is very hot. The Tufted Titmouse is panting his head off. Shaking too.
The Mourning Dove got out. . .

Couldn't you just leave the garage door open partially, so the light will come through the bottom and hopefully the Titmouse can find its way out.

Hmmmm..... maybe crack the Garadge door open slightly to let in air and give them water and maybe put out some seed! It will be like there outside on your bird feeder!

What I did was: Put out bowl of water, and left the garage door open a crack. We already leave the garage door open a tiny bit for the wren nesting in there.
It got out before we got back, or at least i think he did.
