At 5:35 p.m., firefighters responded after a bird was discovered struck in a drainage culvert, Green Creek Fire Company said. The bird had been sucked from a creek, into a drain pipe, and into the culvert, firefighters said.

Firefighters removed the top grate and utilized a fishing net to remove the cormorant, fire officials said. The bird was tired, though able to walk off on its own, firefighters said.
