Hello Hive family! This post is to spread awareness about birds.
We are facing very hot season of summer. Countries like Pakistan are very hot during this season- sometimes temperature rise up to 50 degree Celsius- winds blow with more temperature than usual every passing year. We humans can hide in shelters from these hot days and warm winds but have you ever thought about animals who are vulnerable to heatstroke due to the rise in temperature?
It is common nowadays to see images like these of birds and other animals or may be you find these birds fallen into your nearby areas due to hot temperature. These animals are part of our society, actually these animals beautify our society and no one would love to see one's home became become less beautiful so why are we ready to see our society without these beauties.
Practices we should do to save these animals from Heatstroke.
Fist thing, when you see a bird has fallen due to heatstroke, sprinkle water over its head and place it in shade. If it awakes, give it something to eat and water drink.
