WC 241 Wish I could have done something......

I found this Little Blue Heron in the Everglades. I know fisherman like to think their hooks will rust out, but I doubt soon enough for this bird. I actually tried to catch this poor little guy, hoping maybe the line was snagged on the log...it wasn't to be. :frown:

A beautiful bird who doesn't deserve the misery he must endure.

Too bad this photo couldn't be seen by people who leave their line and throw their trash in the lake! My family & I camp on the lake all the time - see this all the time - clean up after OTHERS all the time. :frown: :confused: :frown:
