jdmidwest Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Missouri Trooper Risks Life and Limb to Save a Blue Heron at Wappapello Lake Must have been a slow news day. But there you go, my Hero. Nice thing about the radiation damage, I can make a Blue Heron sound out of my damaged throat and fu'kd tongue. Can't whistle, call a bobwhite quail, assemble a flock of fall turkeys. But I can talk to the herons.

fishinwrench Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 We nursed a juvenile Cardinal back to health last week. He (she?) was under a boat with a jacked up wing and hopped along following me when I moved the boat.... so I couldn't just stomp on its head. Looked like he either got clipped by a car or something had ahold of him for a bit. I plucked a couple of busted feathers from his wing and we kept him in the shop overnight. The next day he made a couple of failed attempts then finally got it right and away he went. And thank Dog, because he pooped on everything I own out there. How can something with a stomach the size of a raisin produce 4 lbs worth of birdshit in a single evening ? snagged in outlet 3, BilletHead, Gavin and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdmidwest Posted August 3, 2019 Author Share Posted August 3, 2019 Wrench may get high, but I doubt he could flap his wings and fly.

jdmidwest Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 Wappapello had a bunch of the Herons today. Two Bald Eagles and an Osprey too. NO Heros in sight. Or fish.
