Canada Goose with a limp

[Digifrog]

Hello Dear WABsters

I finished work early today, so I decided to head towards the local lakeside, mainly in the hope of bumping into a hungry Hedgehog (armed with Hedgehog food) , and had some wholemeal granary bread to feed the local ducks.

There was a pair (male & female) Canada Geese. Beautiful they were. Anyway, the male looked as if it had a bad foot or leg, was walking with a definate limp to the point of just hopping. As this bird in currently in residence at the local lake, should I inform a Wildlife Rescuer? Or would they not be able to help? He was a really beautiful bird who I fed well with wet bread and sttroked gently. I'm just concerned for it, as I promised I will try to see if an expert would help in this type of situation.

Many thanks.

Hi mrs fish

Thanks. I have sent an email to Avon & Gloucestershire wildlife trusts, and an email to the RSPB.

That's good

He deserves it. He is, what I can only describe as, a very friendly bird!
