DeFoe and Kreiger rescue osprey

Properly helping wildlife takes a certain kind of professional to get the job done, but Koby Kreiger and Ott Defoe showed that professionals of the fishing variety can help as well. When a young osprey took a tumble out of its nest, the two anglers and Marshall Mike Belter jumped into action to help the bird. The gentlemen safely hoisted it back into its nest, where we're hoping it doesn't make the same mistake twice.
