Bird presents mostly QAR, reactive to stimuli but 'sleepy.' Pupils are reactive to light but 'bouncy,' inconsistent constriction. Dark bruising on R side of keel. Old healed fracture on distal R TMT - no sign of uneven wear on either foot. There was some blood over it (seen on incl pics) but suspect it was from bleeding ear; cleaned it off and there's no sign of a wound. Cleaned out ear with hydrogen peroxide, large blood clot removed. Internal & external anatomy look normal from what's visible. Finished tx and set up in KR2 - initially started leaning but righted himself quickly, stood on towel.

Treatment
---------
25cc LRS SQ R leg
0.34 buprenorphine IM
