Swiss psychologist Carl Jung (1875-1961) said that birds represent our thoughts and that birds in flight symbolize changing thoughts. They feed our imaginations in wondrous ways. The truth is birds are lovely - lovely to watch and lovely to have as friends. According to the local paper, The Tribune-Star, officials would be “monitoring the baiting sites.” Tricky business. Exactly how they plan to poison the crows and not the other birds, or animals or humans, hasn’t been fully determined, although they claim the pellets will be too large for other birds to consume. Crows have been leaving the rural areas during the harsh winters because of a scarcity of food and gathering in huge numbers to scavenge the garbage-littered urban landscape.Ī half-eaten Burger King sandwich looks pretty good when you’re starving. It seems the birds have become a nuisance. Then consider the plight of Terra Haute, Indiana, where officials are now considering poisoning large numbers of crows early next year. Could this event elevate the possibility of Bird Flu infiltrating their community? So far, Manipur remains free of the epidemic, but with tensions high, they are watchful. They have been identified as hosts for the mosquitoes that spread West Nile Virus, and last October, officials in Manipur, India were concerned about winter migrating birds flocking to their city.
Migratory birds do offer some challenges to man in terms of disease. In reality, a bird will only attack when it feels its nest is threatened.
