Tristan, Jake and Charlotte noticed a crow that was hopping yet not flying from lawn to lawn. He asked me (in the vaguest means possible) what I would do if there was an injured bird outside. After investigating, I called the Wildlife Rehabilitation Society and they told me to try to catch him in a towel. The kids had been chasing him here and there until he ended up under a mugo pine over in the neighbour's yard. That neighbour (Scott) helped us catch him (in our yard after the kids chased him down with a laundry basket) and then T and I raced him over to the Animal Hospital to hand him over to the vet.
On the way home, T said "I just feel good rescuing injured animals". I just was happy I didn't have a crow flying around in our van!

Very, very nice thing to do. Crows are smart birds. I knew someone that kept one in a cage and every time you'd say Hi Frank to it he would go "Woo Hoo" and bow!
