I thought some of you might be interested in seeing these photos (see link below) which were taken Sunday 4/28/2012 of a Great Blue Heron which got caught by the wing in a piece of lost kite string which was stretched between two trees over a small creek bed in Arbutus. The bird was hanging about 30-40 feet off the ground. With the help of the fire department we were able to get the bird down and it was transported to a wildlife rehabilitator where I was very happy to learn that it had not broken its wing in the mishap. It was pretty weak from trying to free itself but I think its stay at he rehabbers is going to be pretty short. A happy ending to a really bizarre incident. Mike
