I Know Why The Caged Bird Sweats
Lenox at Bedford, and Lenox tween Rogers and Bedford. Bird cages. With birds. What gives?
I don't know nothin' about birds, but beyond the curious imagery of the street art, is there a reason why one might not want the birds to bask in the hot sun for too long? Granted the temp outside is probably in the safe zone. But like Tantalus, I wonder if this isn't a Big Tease to these animals.

I don't know the name of the bird but it is native to Guyana and I had a Guyanese neighbor tell me that in their country that the birds compete in singing competitions and the birds themselves are worth about 1K each plus they can make money by entering them in competitions. These birds need to be outside for a certain amount of the day, possibly the owner lives in the area. Hope so!
I saw a man on Flatbush Avenue and Parkside holding that same bird cage, I wasn't sure if he was selling the bird but I notice it because my daughter pointed and said "Look a bird inside of a cage, how did he capture it" I was actually curious to why he was standing outside on the corner of Parkside with the bird inside the cage.
