Quote context

[...]

- Come along, you can help me. There are some scissors and bandages in that cupboard over there.

- All right.

- Let's get a proper look at her.

- All right, all right. We're not going to hurt you. Just trying to help you, that's all. You know that, don't you?

- All right. Hmm. Yes, she's been shot all right, poor thing. Her leg's broken. And the wing's tipped, but not badly.

- Now, if we just clip her primaries so that we can bandage it... Yeah, that's better. Now we can see what we're doing.

- Will she be able to fly again?

- Oh, yes. These primaries, these big wing feathers, they'll grow in the spring. And then she'll be able to fly as well as ever.

- But I'm going to bandage the wing close to the body, so that she can't move it until it's set, you see?

- Now we'll have to make a splint for a poor leg.

- Shall I hold her, sir?

- Yes, that's right. You hold her while I find a splint among this firewood here.

- Well, these twigs will do, I think.

- I'll have to be a bit stronger than that.
