That escape of plucky Mr Yellow with Dad"s assistance must have been thrilling to watch, and especially so after the hours of anxiety knowing the chick was stuck.
Doreen:
That is wonderful news. Yeah Dad to the rescue. Thanks you for the update.
carly:
Wonderful news!! Dad to the rescue and little one has learned how to get out of a tough situation. Thank you so much for the update ;D
Elaine L:
Just heard from Bev. They did not attempt to rescue Yellow from his tight situation, as the biologist, on the telephone, had discouraged this, for fear of an injury. But Dad, in his efforts to show Yellow what to do, kept on flying through the only area where Yellow could gain altitude and get out, and apparently Yellow was watching closely, as when Dad did a recent fly-by, he followed him up and out, then continued to follow Dad over to the apartment building, Windsor Towers, about two blocks southwest from where he had been stuck, and here he wavered, but then landed on the 11th floor balcony of this building, to the cheers of the watch crew beneath him on the nearby parkade. Bev was thrilled. She had yelled encouragement to him the whole time, and Yellow proved to be a brave little bird.
As it happens, a lady who lives in this apartment building saw all the action, and knows Bev and all about the fledge watch, so she called Bev and said that she would notify the people who live in that apartment to not go out on to their balcony, for fear of scaring off Yellow, of course.
Bev is ready for a rest after all this, and there are four of us heading down there shortly for evening duty.

Ah, yes, now I recall reading that. ::) Thanks, bob. Well, talons crossed for a positive outcome. Will be thinking of all of you and waiting for updates.
