Tangled! - a photo on Flickriver

Tangled!

            On my morning walk I spotted this adult Canada Goose with a leg tightly wrapped in fishing line. The bird was still present in the afternoon and the Oakville and Milton Humane Society was called. While waiting I tried baiting with bread but I was outsmarted when the goose noticed that my bread throws were bringing him (I think this is a male goose on size) ever closer and he sprinted away. When the Humane Society arrived we all worked together to successfully catch the goose and remove the line. The line had cut quite deeply into the leg and would eventually have led to the loss of the foot.
