Today, Mr. Christopher D'Costa, an Anglo Indian resident rescued an eagle that was entangled in a huge tree. It seemed to have got struck while swooping down to pick up something of its's interest.
Christopher spotted the large bird and asked his neighbour Kallu Mia for a laggi (long bamboo with a hook). At first Kallu Mia was pleased to know of the eagle being stuck. He said that if it died it would be better as eagles take away their chicks that are small. Finally he agreed to give the laggi. Christopher managed to pull and tug at the stalks and branches allowing the bird to fall. As soon as it fell it was up and it flew into the early morning clear sky.
