This is a posting dedicated only to one bird... the Wattled Crane. This beautiful bird are the most endangered species of crane with an approximate 250 individuals in the wild.I went to visit Monte Casino Bird Gardens on Friday, 27 April 2007. A show was held in the amphitheater showing several birds, but one bird drew my attention.
As the guide presented their Wattled Crane, Wabbles, the song "Rose" from the movie Titanic soundtrack started to play. In came Wabbles proudly posing for the crowd with wide open wings not even knowing how special he is. As Wabbles ran up and down posing and jumping gracefully like a ballerina my heart felt so sore for this poor bird species... I wished I could reach out to them in some way and just change everything. The only thing we can do is make people aware of their crisis.

Sometimes in life we see something so special being hurt that our hearts want to tear apart. Even if it itself is unaware of how precious it is, or of all the pain around it, we feel like we want to change the world for it, on behalf of it. All because we got touched, and moved by it.
Why cant we reach out and touch back...
