Just a note of info (that I didn't know)...
At a recent photo shoot, we saw a bird at the edge of the water...We all felt badly that the bird seemed unable to fly and must be hurt.
Well, me, being the animal lover that you all know I am...I placed a towel over the bird and took it to PAWS, the local animal rescue. I had to make sure I was away from the pointed beak!!
I was concerned, so I called the next day to find that the bird was picked up from PAWS and taken to the Emerald Coast Wildlife Rescue in Destin.
I soon found out that the bird was a common Loon...and was told that they cannot stand, and have to be several miles out to be able to fly again! So, if you see a bird like this on the beach, just know that most likely it is not injured, and that it will soon be flying again!
