oddest animals that have spooked you

[treevet]

I rescued a huge parrot way up in an oak tree and the lady gave me a 100 dollah bill and a long wet kiss. He was up there for a day and over night and she called me at 5 in morning. Said he was afraid to fly out of the tight canopy. He lived in a double wide trailer with the dog who he was talking to while I was trying to get him. Finally she sent me up some cocktail cherries he liked and I slipped a pillow case over him and tied him to my saddle and took him down. Rescued the same cat 3 times for 50 bucks each time but didn't get enough for the amount of damage he did to my arm. Been tore up by bald/white hornets many times. Not much hurts more than that..

One time went up a tree to td it and look at the end of branch I am cutting and a huge paper mache nest. Since it is near the ground I have the groundy get a garbage can and the plan is to pole clip it off into the can and the gm puts the lid on real fast. Well it hits the rim, the can tips over and they are everywhere. So I head up top thinking they will not notice me if I am real still. Wrong, they start tagging me and I have to rapel down right thru the crowd of them. Poison made me sick not to mention the pain.

Here they like ash, seems most bees, wasp.....hornets do. Every time I have been nailed, its been in a ash.

Thanks! I'm making a note to myself to avoid putting my head up anyone's ash.

Nobody had a hope of catching me the way I was flailing, looked like a self abusing tornado

Yeah, I see them flying around in green ash here as well, but almost always find the monster basketball size nests in spruce.

I seen the biggest nest/hive I've ever seen anywhere right in my back yard. It fell out of a tree during a fall storm. Bigger than a beach ball. If it's still there when the snow melts, I'll post a pic of it in here.

Especially the tongue always hanging out and the drool.

Was trimming a crab apple for davey and was standing on a branch shaking a bald faced hornets best the size of an orange and saw one fly past me then another came a little closer so I hit it with my hand saw then hell broke loose got hit twice in the lip and took right to my left arm. Ran down the road about 1/8mile with then chasing me. The photo is ten minutes after I got stung.




Also hit a nest of baby black squirrels when I was in the bucket at work found one when I got down.
