11. A Bird on a Tree. What a brilliant concept!
You wouldn’t think someone would phone 911 to report a bird in a tree, but that’s exactly what happened. Here is a former Fire and Rescue Firefighter. I’ve assisted in the release of several dogs and toddlers who had become stuck in the mechanism of a recliner chair. There’s also a bird stranded in a tree, for whatever reason. When we got the call, we didn’t know what to think. We arrived at the place to see, you guessed it, a bird in a tree. I’d never seen a palm tree so tall before.
“On our team, there was one guy who loved to play the hero. So, because he wanted to execute the heroic act in front of the ladies, we responded, ‘OK, Sunshine, have at it.’ We set up the ladder and sent him off to save the bird. The bird’s leg was caught, as it turned out.
