..histoplasmosis..

{a fungal infection inhaled during the cleanup of pigeon droppings}

i am beyond fed up with these dirty infested creatures. we have a couple that are nesting under the eaves in our courtyard, and i am sooo sick of sweeping up feathers and their aesthetically displeasing droppings. they are disgusting. i can't take it anymore. go.elsewhere. you are not liked here. go away.
