We got a phone call about this poor pelican yesterday and several phone calls today, but Bridgette wasn’t up to going yesterday after her being unwell for a few days and still not fully recovered yet.
So mum and me and Bridgette came along too ,just to supervise .
Bridgette wanted to give a high five, it made Bridgette’s day.
Bridgette hasn’t been helping with the birds for the last few days, but she will be supervising, so she can be with the birds, and to be with me.
The pelican was so lucky the hook was just underneath the skin, but it could have been worse if he had preened himself and got caught to his bill what a disaster if that had happened, we removed the huge lure then released him back, one lucky big boy.
Thank you mum for helping me today with the rescue, also thank you to the people who phoned in.
Couldn’t see the one with lure in foot today, hopefully it fell out.
