http://www.droitwichstandard.co.uk/2015/02/07/news-Firefighters-swoop-to-save-Harris-Hawk-stuck-up-a-tree-in-Droitwich-125622.html
FIREFIGHTERS in Droitwich have rescued a bird of prey who found himself in a flap after getting stuck up a tree.
The crew arrived at about 9.30am this morning (Monday) to find the Harris Hawk stranded on a branch 20metres up by the Raven Hotel.
A call had been made by the RSPCA officers who were concerned the hawk was becoming distressed about the situation.
Firefighters used an aerial ladder platform to assist the bewildered bird before handing it to the RSPCA.
