Vipin Bhatia is a passionate bird lover from India’s northern city of Ludhiana. His passion for helping injured birds started when he was just 16, when a baby sparrow was killed after it hit the ceiling fan in his room.
Vipin Bhatia是一名来自印度北部城市Ludhiana热心的爱鸟人士,当他才16岁时,他开始有了帮助受伤鸟儿的热忱,当时一只小麻雀撞上他房间的吊扇后死亡。

[Vipin Bhatia, Bird Lover]:
“As a child whenever I used to see injured birds, I used to feel I should do something for them as they are speechless and helpless and no one is there to take care of them."
[Vinpin Bhatia,爱鸟人士]: 小时候每当我看到受伤的鸟儿,我时常觉得我应该为它们做些什么,因为它们不会说话又无助,而且那里也没有人照顾它们。

The experience changed Bhatia, and in 2008, he started an NGO called Save Birds. He provides shelter to injured birds and nurses those who are able to fly again.
这些经验改变了Bhatia,在2008年,他发起一个名为“拯救鸟类”的非政府组织。他提供受伤鸟儿可以庛护的地方,也细心照料那些能够再次飞翔的鸟。

Bhatia has been taking care of birds for almost two decades now and many have received his love and many have been returned to their natural habitat.
Bhatia一直照顾鸟儿已经快20年了,许多鸟接受过他的爱心照料,得以重返了大自然的栖地。

[Vipin Bhatia, Bird Lover]:
“Right now we have around 125-150 injured birds and until now I have treated more than 5,000 birds in my life and released them to Mother Nature."
[Vipin Bhatia,爱鸟人士]: 目前我们收容了大概125~150只受伤的鸟,至今我已经治疗超过5000只鸟,并放它们回到大自然的怀抱。

Birds recuperating under Bahtia’s care include pigeons, eagles, an owl, crows, doves, parrots and many more.
在Bahtia照顾下恢复的鸟类,包括鸽子、老鹰、猫头鹰、乌鸦、白鸽、鹦鹉还有更多。
