With respect to the birds failing health, has anyone considered the ethical
implications of performing surgery and helping it heal? Native animals in
Australia are treated by Wires, and indeed pets, are covered by some sort of
'cruelty to animals' legislation. Is this not a native animal in need of
help?

Four members of SUNBOC made the trip and arrived 3.15 pm 12th Aug and
within 5mins had located GHL exactly where we were told to look in the wet
swamp area behind picnic table. We observed for approx one hour during which
time it made three or four flights around this area.
It was our opinion that the guy from Tassie worried about booking tickets
to see it should go ahead as that bird is not going anywhere else with that
weight or growth on its foot. As long as there is water in those ditches and
dam the bird will remain in this area until it dies as it is no positon to
make a substantial flight.
