Model Christie Brinkley is currently holidaying in Miami but the model hadn't bargained for a trip to the hospital while there.
Christie took to social media and
posted the below Instagram photo where she explained that she ended up in hospital after saving a bird.
The 61-year-old wrote the following message to go with the image: "We interrupt this holiday to take a little unplanned excursion to Miami for cat scans and stitches following an accident trying to save a bird.
My grateful heartfelt thanks go out to our wonderful Parrot Cay Family who got me to the boat and plane, and my friends in Miami who found my A Team at University of Miami Hospital led by Dr Askari and his professional caring and adorable team and to my bestie @artminster who spent her much needed and deserved holiday by my bedside."
She added: "I can't possibly thank you enough and I offer you a pain check. I mean rain check! Lol! @artminster #grateful #thankful #itcouldhavebeenworse! #youneverknow#liveachday."
Mother-of-three Christie appeared to have suffered a few nasty cuts but still rallied to take a selfie or two.
