--Boundary_(ID_rrMBmchVnh5xAsH80CRr4A) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Thanks to Helene for the link below to the story -- there was a very short video update last night on CBC-TV's "The National" news show. Obviously I was incorrect about the location, which is near Sidney on southeastern Vancouver Island, B.C. And it turned out that the rescue itself was easy, although getting the crane there and up and doing anything at 130 feet up makes me dizzy just thinking about it! Cheers from Jim in Wolfville Begin forwarded message: > From: Helene Van Doninck <helene.birdvet@gmail.com> > Date: May 20, 2011 6:22:10 PM ADT > To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca > Subject: Re: [NatureNS] re eaglet in trouble with web camera in B.C. > Reply-To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca > > Hi Jim, > > Just got this from rehab contacts.
