Mom Safed a Bird!

Hey Bonnie, didja here? Mom safed Oreo!
Oreo? He's in Virginia. How could she save him?
Not that Oreo. This Oreo's frum Baltimore. An Mom safed him.
Victor, that doesn't make sense.
I herd Mom an Dad talkin bout it. The Oreo from Baltimore was tangled in fish, hangin frum a branch, an Mom sawed him an safed him's life!
Tangled in FISH?
Sumfing like that. She held Oreo while a flicker cut the fish off.
How much catnip have you had today?
No, really! Here' s a pictor Rurik took to proof it.
Rurik?
The flicker! He had cutters wif him an helped free Oreo.

Victor, that's not Oreo or a flicker, that bird's a Baltimore Oriole.
Dat's what I said! Baltimore Oreo.
And our woman holding it. Our woman caught a bird?
No, the fish caught it and she helped free it. She safed his life.
She caught a bird and LET IT GO???
Uh, yea.
Haven't I taught her anything? Beans. is. weird.
Beans. is. weird.


Tabbymom here. We went for a photowalk with other Madison Flickr members. When I realized this poor bird was hanging from a branch, tangled in fishing line, I tried to help. Our Flickr friend Rurik had his pocket knife and we managed to cut the line away. The little guy had it tangled around his neck! Then he flew away! I didn't get any pictures, but other "Flickrs" got some. Sorry, Bonnie, Victor, no bird for you.
