Annie's Annual Animal Aid

So some sun, finally. I (Chris) was about to take a back garden blip this evening when I heard some wing flapping and noticed Yogi sat taking a great deal of interest in something. I quickly realised it was a bird in some distress. Annie has a history of animal "whispering" (we call her Annie Doolittle) and she very quickly had an injured pigeon in her hands. It couldn't fly and it looked more than a bit worse for wear.

We're very fortunate to have a well known wildlife rescue centre very local to us (Tiggywinkles). Having found a suitable box to contain a now excitable pigeon, we set off to animal casualty to deliver our patient.

Why "annual"? It's been around a year since our last animal rescue mission: at least this one wasn't at 3am!
