Scooter photos from the weekend
Scooter is still paddling about. He seems to be in the company of a similarly-sized swan, who may be one of his siblings. It's hard to tell now. Scooter is easy to find, he's the one with only one leg that works right. You can see here that most of his foot is gone, and the stump doesn't look the healthiest. I'm hoping to see him have a lash at flying one day. I did see two swans skimming across the surface of the water without really lifting off the other day, but I couldn't tell if one was Scooter.

Mark, I volunteer at Native ARC, a wildlife rescue service. The folks here suggested that one of your local similar groups should be told about poor Scooter so that they could assess his foot if they deem it necessary.
ReplyDeleteAny chance of giving one a call? Scooter could die if it becomes infected.
