It sounded extremely traumatic. Poor little bird.

I am just popping online from time to time and I opened up the Cornell site earlier and the person known as Culley / LC (I think?) had just arrived home from Cornell and she was one of the people onsite with the person who caught E3 and she said it only took about 10 seconds. He was on the ground by then. His sex is male she said and he is being hydrated and gets x-rays tomorrow, but she said he didn't have any broken feathers.

She seemed pretty upbeat about recovery.

you take it easy there.

edited to add: Culley said they wouldn't be tagging E3

OK, more updates in Incident Report from Victoria - some sort of shoulder injury. Given painkillers and hydrated for now.
