Re: blue heron fiasco

Little bit off subject here, but how come you've got trash trees like cottonwoods growing in your neighborhood?

I think someone did try a regular ladder, but it was a tall tree, they
thought maybe a cottonwood. Maybe there was nothing much anyone could do,
but it's such a shame.

Don't know about Indiana but around here my local PD calls me!  We
have alot of conservation type people also that will come in.  Mostly
I have had to help with owls!  Only one water foul till the game
warden picked him up!  Didn't anyone have a ladder?  I know they are a
pesky bird but I would think someone could have done something!
How inhumane is that!

I'm not sure what is wrong with the folks around here. Everything is
always
someone else's problem.
A locla column today wrote about a lttle boy who saw a great blue
heron

hanging upside down in a cottonwood tree, trying to get untangled.

They
called animal control, the fire department, the DNR, all of which said
they
couldn't do anything. After 6 hrs the bird was bloody from the high
winds
and its efforts to get loose so DNR authorized shooting it - if anyone
happened to have a gun, which finally someone found. Unfortunately,
the

carcass is still hanging there.  They said someone finally called a

tree

service the next day, hoping they can get it down.

I'm not sure what should be done, but don't you think the second

largest
county in Indiana should have some plan in place for such problems?
