TITLE

We are so immune to the effects we have on the environment, seeing wildlife in man-made surroundings seems natural to us.  But what if the tables were turned?  What if we had to live in the dumps we make?  Nature has no voice to argue for itself.  The storks in the original photo are eating form the dump rather than their natural wetland environment.  Perhaps the dump replaced the wetlands or it was filled in for construction development.  They have no choice but to eat here.  What if humans had no choice?  I imagine the storks telling the humans where to live and how to eat. After decades of living off the dumps, the storks revolt, take back their wetland and force the humans to live in the mess they perpetuate through consumer ambivalence.
