Poor Birdie

This is a shot from my April 2nd park trip. I'm not sure how his/her foot got injured, but he/she seems to get around pretty well regardless.

I have done no editing to this shot.

It's raining here today so I'm not sure if I'll be able to get a shot of my baby robin friend or not. Fingers crossed!

Lovely capture of this poor little Canada Goose. I wonder what heppened to him. I like the sunlight shining on the water behind him as well.

@janmaki
Thanks Jani! I was beginning to think you were traumatized by all my bird shots lately. lol

@mej2011 haha no... just slowly fading away from 365 ... but had to come to take a look at your shots :)

@janmaki
That makes me very sad. :(

[Jani M]

@mej2011 nawwww don't be sad :(

[Jason Daniels]

Oh so sad, poor bird! Looks like his leg was caught with some wire maybe :(

@bobfoto
Probably, but he still seems happy. So, that's good.

@mej2011 - they are so resilient, it can get worse if an infection gets in, but this injury seems like an old one, so he'll survive.

@bobfoto
From what we've heard about him, the injury is not recent. So hopefully infection will not be a problem.

Poor thing! It looks so swollen and sore:(

@pwallis
Yeah it is a sad sight. Like I said though, he gets around like nothing is wrong.
