Epoch Times: New York Too Busy to Care? Center Rescues City’s Injured Birds
http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/923382-new-york-too-busy-to-care-center-rescues-citys-injured-birds/-snip-
We’ll never recover our reputation for being a tough, brutally “Darwinian” city after you hear what goes on at the Wild Bird Fund, tucked behind a glass storefront on Columbus Avenue between 87th and 88th streets.
It’s astonishing.
Birds, all kinds of birds, from sparrows to seagulls, pigeons to falcons, to chickens, and even, for that matter, turtles, are brought in in boxes, injured, by New Yorkers, famed for being too rushed to notice anything but their iPhones, or their next meeting or date. Not true.
Not when an injured bird is spotted.
