Finally, with the holidays over, I can reflect on the amazing morning (Sunday, December 20, 20) when Angel was rescued.
I could not have had a more ideal group than the eight people who attended, the 10-12 others who helped in various ways leading up to the 20th and to Pam Garthe who initially told me in October about this lone goose left at a lake.
She had been living at the location noted here on Angel’s page. She was unable to join her migrating flock due to developing an angel wing. For details on that-see comments.

The rescue itself only took 15 minutes but the period just before lasted about 30 min—and was so vital to successfully catching her. It took weeks to locate a home for her—and I spoke to persons in the complex network from California to Ohio to find SOMEwhere for her to live. Obtaining enough volunteers at the same time on the same day—OH so fortunate! And the weather was just perfect. The ice seen two days before was gone, and the neighbors were supportive— not bothered. All things were truly aligned!
Thanks to Megan McCarron and Tori Jean for bringing in Rachel and her parents for semi-professional help! Angie Wahlig-Hulshoff and husband Dave for saying yes and for bringing kayaks and to BillyandKathy Audrain for being there too—Billy helped find Angel who had left the area and was difficult to locate—Kathy also took the photos...PL Pardo welcomed Angel who is now settling in well.

Below are just a few photos from the rescue and afterward. One photo shows Angel with Wally the goat—one of Angel’s first friends.
Angel is a gentle, non-aggressive water bird (we are leaning towards a female) who would have been euthanized by the wildlife rescue center if we didn’t have a sanctuary in which to bring her.
Updates will follow on her progress....

PLANNING FOR SUNDAY—anyone else wanna be a human barrier—just let me know!
Choosing a time with the few I have so far, so not yet set, thought hoping for a time between 11-2. If we have enough help, this could take less than an hour......only time I will be attempting. 💕🦤🌼💚🛶🌊

The lake and the goose--see comments for more info :0)

IMPORTANT REQUEST!
Went to the lake to see Angel around 4:30. Still here.
Asking any of you-if you know if anyone with a KAYAK🛶 that can help with rescue, it would help so much. Just to have—in case Angel goes in or needs to be encouraged to get out 🦤 of the water.

Looking for someone with a kayak who can go in the lake at this golf course! (It’s now a walking path and soon to be a county park in Arnold).

12/05/2020

Please like AND FOLLOW-may need some kind of help catching her to get her to safety ...and a new home. 💕
She cannot fly. She is alone.

12/05/2020

Please join my page and help
me capture her SOON from an old/no long used golf course —in an unprotected location with winter weather coming —too cold to survive... and predators nearby make her current existence unsafe. I do not want to take her to a rescue where she would be euth’d since her wing is not repairable...
I will
NEED HELP SOON 🐾 from those who can!

Angel is a Canada goose with “angel wing” and because this has grounded her for life, I want to rescue her from her current location and take her to a safe home with other geese. It’s rather likely that her mate went off with the flock when they began migration weeks ago.
She is alone, except for visiting flocks.
She watches them come, and then leave.
Angel is not only at risk for predation and lack of food (starvation) but her solitary life is not natural and this impacts her from a different place. Her heart. Canada geese mate for life.
TARGET DATE: tba [rescue farm found]
Please FOLLOW this—HOPEFULLY —short-lived page .....and if you can HELP be present to help me catch her, I have a home for her waiting, and the work will be done.
