Saved a life tonight with my light!

I saw her huddled under the large bench in front of my shop. It was 12 degrees and snowing like crazy and I am pretty sure she would have frozen to death if I hadn't spotted her when I did as she was obviously sleeping. I was just there to grab some paperwork I had forgotten in my shop when I spotted her by accident while playing with my new Leatherman Serac S2 (nice light by the way). So of course I woke her up and took her back to her home.....the chicken coop! :laughing: Yes, it was only a stray hen I saved tonight, but still made me happy to do it. I have about 25 chickens and they normally return to their nice warm coop each evening, but every once in a while one gets side tracked around the farm and the sun goes down and they decide to stay wherever they happen to be. Anyway, just glad I came along when I did, for once goofing off with my lights paid off (at least from the chicken's point of view)!

I can imagine the tagline for an ad for the S2 now...

This is why you should ALWAYS play with your lights when you don't need them. Good job!

Well done! Great setup on the story too.

You saved a chick with your light? Congrats.

I've got an awesome chicken soup recepie.

I used a couple lights to save a kitten back in November. He's now a member of the family.

That's awesome! 3 out of 5 of my cats were strays, (1 was pregnant) no flashlight rescues with them, but my mom leaves food in our garage for strays and we have also have a (strong) dog who likes to chase the strays, so going out with a light before taking her out kinda saves their lives (and my shoulder if she's on a leash).
