Hi Carl,
Hope it survives but it may well not. Many of these Tawny Frogmouths become
victims of cars. I don't understand the last sentence. What is the dilemma -
let alone a moral one? Why does a tick matter? Why should my answer or
anyone else's answer matter to you? It is your choice, your list and it is
not as if the species is a rarity or the record matters much. I certainly
don't care if you "tick" it or not on your local patch list and I can't
imagine why anyone else would care. You have a story. A story is more than a
tick. If you are talking about a particular survey, then go by whatever the
rules are of that survey.

Subject: An unfortunate way to tick a Frogmouth
I have a guest for the night, a young Tawny Frogmouth which was hit by a car
on the road outside the house. I have rung WIRES, and they are trying to get
here tonight, otherwise, if it lasts the night, I will take it to the vet in
the morning. It is the first TF I have seen on my local patch, but have a
bit of a moral dilemma as to whether I can tick him.
