“Homing Pigeon Adopts Baby Bunnies”
“These little bunnies, about 6 days old, were attacked by a dog and orphaned. Two out of the litter of five did not survive, and these three were not doing very well.”
“この生後6日の子ウサギ達は犬の攻撃で、孤児になってしまいました。5匹のうち、2匹は死んでしまい、残った3匹の子達の状態も良くありませんでした。”
“Noah is a non-releasable, one-legged homing pigeon/rock dove that is in the rehab center. Noah kept going over to the bunny cage and looking in—even sleeping in front of the door to the cage.”
“写真の鳩の名前はノア、片足の鳩なので自然に帰る事が出来ません。ノアは子ウサギ達のゲージを覗き込んで、その前で寝たりもしました。”
”Then suddenly, there were only two bunnies in the cage. To everyone’s surprise there was the tiny bunny under Noah’s wing sound asleep! That little bunny rabbit had crawled through the cage, preferring a featherbed!”
“ある日、子ウサギがノアの翼の下で眠っていたのです。このゲージには2匹の子ウサギが居たのですが、驚いた事にこの子達はノアの翼に潜り込んで寝る事を気に入ってゲージ越しにノアの翼に潜り込んでいました。”
“Now, they are all together and the bunnies are doing GREAT. When the bunnies scoot underneath Noah’s feathers, he carefully extends his wings out to surround them and then they snuggle. When one of them moves and they start sticking out here and there, he gently pushes them back under him with his beak! It is a beautiful and amazing thing to see.”
“今、彼等は一緒に過ごしていて、子ウサギ達は健やかに育っています。子ウサギ達が翼の下で固まっている時、ノアは翼を広げて子ウサギたちを包み込みます。もしも、はみ出してしまった子ウサギが居たら、ノアは優しくその子を翼の下に押し戻します。それはとても信じられない、目を見張るような光景です。”
＞＞＞”ノア”の一人称が”He”なので、多分ノアは雄の鳩です。
