A Colorado Parks and Wildlife officer helped untangle a juvenile osprey that got its talon tangled in some rope and twine in a Longmont nest Wednesday.

The tangled bird was spotted by a passerby, who called it in. Colorado Parks and Wildlife posted the video on its Facebook page of the rescue, which took place on a nest atop a 60-foot siren tower in north Longmont.

The wildlife officer used a cherry picker provided by the city of Longmont to reach the nest, and was then able to free the slightly ornery osprey.

The officer removed the trash before replacing the juvenile bird back in the nest.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife said the bird did not appear to have any permanent injuries.

“The source of the entanglement was from baler twine and rope,” Colorado Parks and Wildlife wrote in the post. “This serves as a reminder to everyone to ensure loose rope/string are properly disposed to prevent wildlife entanglements.”
