Any chance to use a dip-net on the ground with corn? I hope someone can catch it and get it taken care of.Update from Tue afternoon:. On way back to camp Cygnet was by road further downstream. Eager for corn I tossed. My sense is that soon it would eat from hand and could be rescued. But the high Spring current took it further downstream out of sight toward a section of the river with narrowing banks, faster water and eventually a turbulent flow and waterfalls. It knows food is upriver but can it fight against the Muskoka River in flood?

Thanks for suggestion ... I am new to this particular situation and don't know the rescue strategy of the group. It looks like I have some sleuthing to do if I am to help beyond feeding corn - that's for sure. Again, your idea may get this big bird rescued. Appreciated. It has not fought the current to return to areas where it could be fed or caught. I will check the dam/waterfall area below its last location this afternoon.Any chance to use a dip-net on the ground with corn? I hope someone can catch it and get it taken care of.
For those not familiar with dip-nets, they are basically huge landing nets with long handles (15-20’) used to catch salmon up here in AK.
Many areas have ‘wildlife rescue’ groups. When I lived in TX I volunteered with them.Thanks for suggestion ... I am new to this particular situation and don't know the rescue strategy of the group.
