I am sorry to say I am tearing up laughing at your tale. The bird was okay and likely learned from his experience, though.

Reminds me of when I was a kid and blue tits nested in our mural mailbox. My brother and I, being kids, would open the mailbox door (inside the house) to peek at the babies. Anyway. Have you ever tried to catch an irate and terrified blue tit mama while she's frantically flying in a 2x2m hallway, so you can put her back in a large rectangular hole in the wall, this at one in the morning, while praying your mother won't wake up? Because I have.

even inside the apartment in some 3D printed bird feeders

Oh boy, you like to live dangerously. How did that go?

I'm doing the same (outside the window) with bird seed, so I'll sometimes enter my kitchen and find pigeons / collared doves staring at me. But they just stare and stare and then fly away. No war cries.

Great idea. I've been growing my own opml for the same purpose as you, I hoped to share it so other people could populate Lemmy instances (especially Mander, because I am not qualified to filter the good science from the bad before posting). I got sidetracked, though.

Have you looked into RSS bridge for websites like AP news and Reuters that no longer have RSS? It looks like this: https://rss-bridge.org/bridge01/

I wasn't certain of where to put this article, since it's history medicine, plants and all, but the cause of the sickness was relevant enough for the journal "Economic Botany" in 1965... I guess it fits?

We won’t report when there is domestic violence. If there is any words that come from the woman that [her] children were there, children are considered at risk and so they are taken.

A justified fear (2020 article). And the Stolen Generations were not so long ago.

Loosely related, since it's a whole different continent (Canada) ... I started listening to the “Unreserved” podcast just yesterday (more precisely the episode on birthing services, and the fear of children removals is mentioned too, in the context of childbirth rather than domestic violence. The Sixties Scoop and birth alerts.

Absolutely justified fear.
