The long awaited rescue

This male anhinga was spotted about two weeks ago, perched on a branch, trying to rub netting off his bill. It was wound around his bill so tight he could not open his bill or eat, however he could still fly. So we waited and waited. Every day the naturalists would go searching for him, checking on his condition. And then the call came, right in the middle of the golf tournament, he was spotted on the 18th hole. Quietly, so quietly, the brave Amanda and stealthy Christina wrangled Andy the anhinga and carefully cut away most of the entanglement. Andy was so thin, we transported him to B.E.A.K.S. a local rehabilitation center, where he will get all the rest and nutrition he needs to get back on his feet.
