So glad you happened along and rescued him. Small birds getting caught in
noxious weeds as they’re foraging for the seeds is a know hazard. Lucky for him
you came along.

Yesterday as I was out walking, a couple pointed out to me, that there was a
Gold Finch flapping about in a burdock plant! I went up to the plant and saw
that the bird’s wing was clearly stuck and attached to the burdock, so I
gathered the bird in my hand and gently pulled its' stuck wing
