User's notes
The white cocky brigade paid a visit this morning, with one of them getting stuck/wedged between two fence pailings by mistake because he mucked up his landing. He was hanging by his neck and couldn't manage to free himself! I ran outside and quickly held the weight of his body and propped him back up about 10 inches and he got unstuck and then happily flew off.
