Daune,

How fitting this all seems for you to be the one to rescue this bird since you spend sooo much much time with them.

Outstanding of you, I think many including myself would be somewhat apprehensive to grasp a live bird like that, Those talons im sure will slice to the bone, let alone the damage that beak could do.

Great outcome and kudos to you for the rescue, I see allot of newcomers here so the outpouring of respect for what you did is indeed refreshing...

One of the best acts of kindness I have seen on these boards, Great work to everyone involved!!!
