Dear C-Birders,
I am confused and disturbed by some folks' sentiment that birds are "nasty
creatures." I cannot begin to fathom the resoning behind this notion. Some
will say that birds carry diseases; others are repulsed by bird droppings.
However, in my mind, a bird's beauty and charm so greatly outweighs any
negative aspect.
What should I say to the next person who tells me "birds are nasty"? I would
love to have a great comeback, but I'm usually too stunned to say anything.
Anyone else ever been in this situation?
Forever a bird-lover,
Leah
