Ode to Robert Stroud - Birds
Burt Lancaster would be proud. More than 40 years after the film "The Birdman of Alcatraz" hit movie theaters, the name of Robert Stroud -- while not necessarily a household word -- is still recognized in many avian circles for his groundbreaking (at the time) study and research on birds and diseases.
