Jim... about ten years ago (or more) we had an injured swan that looked to have a broken wing in one of the billabongs I drove past on my way to work each day. I tried over-and-over to get someone to rescue that swan and was told that it was impossible to do. He lasted for weeks and finally died, dirty and disheveled. It bothered me a lot then and still does. We live in a rural part of the USA and have no sanctuaries around. But I am sure that I was not the only one to try to find someone to rescue that bird. I suspect that if I'd known you then we could have found someone. :( Glad your bird survived! Craig On Mon, Apr 23, 2012 at 6:15 AM, Jim <jimtibensky_at_fastmail.fm> wrote: > Apologies!
