We netted for the morning and
had a truly lousy day. At first
it was merely slow - no birds
at all from 0730 - 0930. Then
we got a terribly caught
unbanded Greenie. When we got
her out she was limp and exhausted.
Then Eric got a DM (GRA, the
mac-daddy, or one of them, from
Acacia) whose leg he says was
bent oddly in the net. When I
took him out of the bird bag, I
could tell it was broken. It
seems like the upper leg joint
was the culprit - the leg stuck
out at a terrible angle and
he wasn't using the foot.
