DORA IS ONLY 8 MONTHS OLD, BUT IS A GREAT FLYER – NO CLIPPED WINGS FOR HER -AND SHE GOT OUT SUNDAY EVENING, AND FLEW INTO A NEARBY TREE. SHE RESPONDED TO OUR CALLING HER, BUT IT WAS DARK, SO WOULDN’T COME BACK TO US.
SHE HAS BEEN OUT OVERNIGHT TWICE BEFORE, BUT HAS STAYED IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND CAME BACK THE NEXT DAY.
WHAT HAPPENED NEXT IS THAT A TRANSFORMER ON A PG&E POLE EXPLODED AT ABOUT 7.30PM, ABOUT 100 YARDS FROM WHERE SHE WAS, WHICH OBVIOUSLY FRIGHTENED HER, AND SHE MUST HAVE FLOWN OFF. I HAVE TRIED TO INFORM AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE (POLICE/VET/NEXTDOOR/CRAIGSLIST,ETC) AND WE CONTINUE TO SEARCH FOR HER.
BAND STARTS WITH RMCA XXXX.
THANKS,
PETER
