Lets save the birds!

All age groups

Dear Parents, With the heat coming on in a big way, while we have the option of staying indoors in the cool comforts of our air conditioned home, we tend to forget the birds, who's trying to live it out in the open heat. A humble request to all parents - please place a bowl of water in all your balconies, lets do our bit to save the birds. They have nowhere else to go to. Engaging your child in such an activity, will also help the child understand the significance of such humble deeds. Warm Regards

I have tried to make a Garden on my terrace , a little shed and lots of plants ... without putting water for the birds , we get about 30 - 40 pigeons on our terrace ... they all sit in the shade , chew up the tiny insects that sometimes are in the flower pots ... some even eat the plants which have thick and juicy leaves... all is well for me and the pigeons but the poor guy who comes to clean the terrace everyday is super bugged :-) because he has to deal with all the mess that the pigeons leave behind .... All in all .... i am happy and the pigeons seem to be happy...
