great work Kym and beautiful photos .
I removed a grey Headed Flying Fox from barbed wire at Belconnen Police station last Saturday. Sadly she was pregnant and aborted overnight .
I think Barbed wire is the most useless example of progress ever . Many of the Community gardens have fences with barbed wire who knows why , it is false security.
If people want to get in they can cut their way through a fence and I know many gardens have lost many dollars worth of tools etc. in that way.

image of the bird caught in barb wire via toe and tail feather was taken at a distance to see if an intervention was needed not a good image at all
Which was required
Released her with no major damage, held for a minute or so opened one finger at a time and off she flew
One thing I did notice when I had her in my hands on the barbed wire is how soft she was compared to other birds
