[Tweeters] CAGO Broken Wing Near GL Redpolls

[Natalie Bird]

Today after viewing the lovely redpolls still on east shore of Green Lake, I saw an injured Canada goose sitting on shore near dock just west of N 65th St. The goose is dragging right wing and can’t collapse wing against body. When I tried to approach for a grab and trip to PAWS, the goose walked into water and advanced away with a lopsided swim. Seattle Animal Control said they can’t come out for rescue until goose is further immobilized. 

For anyone going out to visit redpolls at Green Lake - please call Seattle Animal Control ( (206) 386-7387 option 2) if you see the Canada goose and it appears catchable.
