Hit A Tree Or Wires

[rickyw]

one of my birds hit a tree/wire on way home from toss,damaged shoulder where wing joins body ,the wound has healed well but has left a small feather sticking out facing forward , can even see this odd looking feather when bird is flying round the loft , should i just pluck it out like ? or cut it off ?? or leave to fall out naturally ?

are you sure its not hawk damage. if it is it may be permanent if not i would just leave it and it will come out during the moult

im not 100% sure its not the hawk,but it looks more like a wire injury like in its armpit and front of shoulder ,know what i mean , and it doesnt seem to be causing any problems,so probably best to leave to moult out like u say , thx
