[cobirds] Help with an injured goose?

I've heard using a big towel to cover the head will calm the bird and allow 
capture.  Never tried it myself.  Once contained, I know Colorado Parks and 
Wildlife will send someone to take it to a rehabilitator.

[cobirds] Help with an injured goose?

2017-04-22 Thread 'Deborah Carstensen' via Colorado Birds
A couple of weeks I and a couple of other people he was able to catch an 
injured goose that had fishing line around his legs. I now suspicion there 
might be more line around its leg that I didn't get because he continues to 
mostly sit and it appears to be painful for him to put pressure on that leg.
  Is there anyone who would be willing to help me try to recapture the 
goose? He is semi tame and easy to get very close to, just not easy to actually 
get him in your arms.  
  If it looks like something that is not obvious on how to fix, I'm going 
to take him to a local emergency vet that does help me in the past with other 
geese.
   I live just south of Bowles off Platte Canyon Drive in Littleton.
