He said 'they call me Birdman beacause my last name is Bird.' Mr. Bird kept me company during my Indianapolis layover. He was seeing off a friend headed for New Orleans. Mr. Bird shared that he was homeless so I asked him about the services to the homeless in Indianapolis. There is a shelter & drop-in center he could use, but he is pretty independent & prefers his tent under the higway. Apparently there is a couple who comes by his underpass on Wednesdays & takes he and his friends to there house for a shower and to do laundry. They also came and got them on Sunday for the Superbowl but my bus was being called so I didn't get to find out who he was rooting for, but I'd like to think it was the Cardinals.
