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.  Squaakk  Squaaaakss

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 ?

Maybe constipated, too full of sheet to fly.

Just to be clear. Are talking about the bird or Wrench??? lol

 

(Disclaimer: Just a joke Wrench. Nothing meant by it at all.🖖)

Wrench may get high, but I doubt he could flap his wings and fly.

Wappapello had a bunch of the Herons today.  Two Bald Eagles and an Osprey too.

NO Heros in sight.  Or fish.
