Hi All,
Things could not have turned out better, Brad gave a very good description on how it all transpired. Jimmy's such a great guy, with a lovely family and his offer to take this bird in was so very kind and what a great place in the country this guy now has a chance to live his life out at. He will have lots of company, a pond to swim in if he likes, and a big ol' barn in the winter full of all kinds of birds and animals to shelter in. It was also a pleasure to meet Brad, also a truly nice guy and he was so concerned about the well being of this bird while capturing him and during the transport. Thanks gentlemen, it was a wonderful day. Ron

What a wonderful story of two lovely guys in Canada (Brad and Ron)
meeting up to catch this poor goose and for being able to take him/her to someone equally as lovely, Jimmy, who has a safe haven for this little guy - Jimmy your place looks and sounds great...... Its like a wonderful fairy story which a happy ending - well done to all those involved - when rewards in heaven start being given out, you 3 will be there.  Thanks for the fantastic ending - nice to read a happy ending ( and we get quite a few of these on Pigeon-Life thanks to the members - even if its a goose this time!!) Tania xx

Well, I gotta tell you that this brought tears to my eyes. This just shows you what three wonderful people can accomplish through teamwork and dedication.
The pictures were so good and the python is beautiful. Brad, you didn't look scared a bit! Isn't it great that the three of you could meet in such a rescue mission. Kudos to all of you and God bless.

Thank you very much, Tania, Treesa, Maggie and Linda
It really was a team effort and I'm just glad it all worked out in the best interest of this unfortunate gosling with a damaged wing.

Hi to all.....
I forgot to say Brad, you wrote a wonderful account of the goings on that day. Just to let you guys know that Hissy (his new found name on account thats how he greets me every morning) is doing just fine. I feel bad for him cause he sits at the front of his pen looking at all the other birds, and I know he is dying to join them outside. After I feel it is safe to let him out, I will allow some outside time under careful supervision. I will take some pics on that day and share them you guys... Give more updates as time goes by....

Hi Jimmy and all,
Maybe we could expand his name a bit to be, "hissy fit", lol. That fits him VERY well, but just "Hissy" for short  Last edited by Pigeonpal2002; 30th July 2006 at 09:02 PM.

Of course, I was NOT taking into account that the name occurred because this bird HISSES and the name sure fits, male OR female! If female, maybe "Ms. Hissy?" sorry, I think I'm getting carried away!
