"A robin redbreast in a cage Puts all Heaven in a rage" - so wrote William Blake. I for one think he's right, and this pathetic aviary with its two dozen or so birds - in the municipal park in Stafford - really bugs me.
I don't even know what the point of it is. It's hardly conservation or education. At a time when local gvernment needs to cut back on costs, this aviary could well be discontinued. It's a horror.
