Good for you! That had to be very rewarding! I had a similiar encounter where I had to handle some sort of small crane (bird) for about 5 minuteswhile attemptingto remove this piece of cloth, which looked like a raggedy oldhankercheif off from in and aroundit's beek. Seeing that bird fly away, and over to the other two birds that were "skwaking" the whole time I was handelingtheir buddy,was very fulfilling. These are the stories that none hunters have to hear about "us", to let them know that it's not always about the harvesting of the animal, but rather our respect for them.
I think you'll have somegood karma coming to you next season foryour "last day success". Nice work!
