A Little Update.

Some people might remember that I talked of a little female chaffinch with an injured leg a month or two ago. I was concerned about her. Her right leg seemed to be dangling and inoperable, which made it difficult for her to maintain a steady position while she fed.

I’m pleased to report that she’s still around. The leg is now working properly it seems, although she has lost her foot on that side. Only a swollen stump remains, but there doesn’t appear to be any inflammation and she is perfectly able to stand and hop on it. In fact, she appears to be in the best of health, fully alert and fit.
