the bird hospital

while in new delhi, zoë and i went to a jain temple. it was a very mellow time of day for the temple, so there were few visitors, and i even managed to sneak some pictures of the shines. like most temples, you have to enter barefoot, and the floor was covered in rice and other offerings like flowers, an interesting sensation for your feet on the marble floor.

next to the jain temple was what really attracted zoë and me to the area: a bird hospital. people from all over new delhi, and i am guessing especially those who attend this temple, bring birds of all kinds to this hospital for treatment. they also accept rabbits. there was a mural in the hospital of all the ways birds are injured including kites, fans, cats, and dogs.






it was hard to take happy photos here.
