Mass bird-feeder ruffles some feathers in Lawndale

So much goodness in one little article.

Apparently, since the area is so prosperous, middle class and uneventful, birds are news. They are also friends. First there was the crazy guy in Redondo a few weeks ago, and now Lawndale. This is why I love the area: ample parking, freeway accessibility and lack of strife.

So, this lady feeds birds. No big deal, until we find this nugget buried in the article

Herrera started feeding birds years ago, after she was laid off from her longtime job... "It was entertaining," she said. "It cheered me up."

CRAZY! She's a shut in and doesn't leave the house.

And later on we find out that she contacted PETA for help, and they refused. She’s even too crazy for the crazies!

The other thing to worry about is Lawndale’s knee-jerk reaction to invoke bird-flu. Luckily, the Breeze is legit, and got a dept of health guy to offer a dissenting opinion.
