Neat shot Kay! So thats what they look like close up.Sort of a hospital there? #267986

Thanks Linda. Yes they have a little hospital type place. People that find hurt birds take them in and they try and make them well again. Once they are o.k. they let the ones go that can go. If they are to bad they keep them at the place. Some have hurt wings and could never fly again so they let them stay. #1512970
