The Long Road to Freedom

What a mission! But finally we got to release this lil' birdy!
Bad weather delayed the release for a few days but today is the day we were desparately waiting for.
As you can see, birdy is telling me to let go already, hehe.
This is 1 out of four birds to pull through, apparently this is a very good result ... only 20% of wild birds survive captivity, even when it's short term only ...
Today feels good though :)
