Was lucky enough to get out of wok early last night and given my riding buddy had blown me out AGAIN I went for a belt on my own instead.
About halfway round on my ride I encountered this.
It looked like his wing was damaged and he didn’t try and fly off. Sat about 1m away for about 15mins whilst I was on the phone to the RSPCA. They arrived after an hour and took him away.
Not before I’d had to stand guard over him at the edge of a narrow 60mph speed limit road for 15 mins. I nearly got taken out by a number of people who clearly weren’t paying attention and had to virtually jump into the hedge.
The sad thing in all the time I was stood there only 1 person in a car asked if everything was ok?
