Video: Minu Gets His Life Back Thanks to the Wonderful Wild Bird Fund

We suggest you mute this little movie and meditate on how much love, care, and support went into saving this little guy and sending him back into the wilds of Manhattan.

It was a beautiful day Saturday to send Minu back into the world. This ring-billed gull spent 2 months with us recovering from a deep wing wound and a foot injury. Be careful out there, buddy!

It would be nice if we were able to rescue all the humans out there with deep wounds and other injuries. When all of them have been loved, cared for and supported back to health, I’ll have a little more room in my heart to be happy for a seagull. Nothing wrong at all with helping animals. We need them in the world too. Just feel like the emphasis is sometimes misplaced because it is easier psychologically and otherwise to mend a gull than a broken soul.

The happy bird at first doesn’t seem to realize that he’s free. At last he understands that he is in his natural surroundings and flees with joy.

Thank you!
