ANOTHER BIRD RENTS OUT SPACE IN A SIGN ON BROADWAY

June 6, 2017 | 4:12 PM
in ABSURDITY, NEWS, OUTDOORS
6

It’s springtime and the birds are doing their thing. And increasingly, they’re doing their thing inside signs with the letter O on Broadway. The tight real estate market is clearly causing birds to shack up in the closest cozy spot available, and the letter O has historically been very cozy.

The family shown above is living in the O of Copy Express on Broadway and 90th Street. If you stop by, consider giving them a friendly whistle.

Thanks to Elizabeth Kandel for the photo.

Looks like a male House Sparrow. Invasive and aggressive species. Ubiquitous.
