A Barred Owl killed by some fisherman’s miscast line. The owl was entangled by her flight feathers and drowned after exhaustion. By the shape of the carcass, I think this bird died the night before last.
Fishermen are too often a mess; they leave spent line and lures all over, trash the banks, and dump lead weights in the water to be consumed by waterfowl. No, not all fisherman are horrible. That said, it doesn’t take many bitter almonds to make you suspicious of the lot, same as for hunters and people with off-leash dogs.
