Trigger warning: This article contains photos of injured animals and may be distressing to some readersAt an underpass where construction is wrapping up on the soon-to-open Finch West LRT, concerns are being raised over dead pigeons found trapped amid the site alterations. Pigeons appear to be getting caught between a concrete wall and a red metal plate — installed by Metrolinx, trying to get back to their roost site. The irony here? The new LRT, planned to open this year as the TTC's Line 6, is named for Finch Avenue, which, while originating from the moniker of a former hotel and its owner, also shares the name of the finch species of birds, of which multiple subspecies are found in Toronto.The site in question is located along a westbound stretch of Finch where the LRT crosses under rail tracks just before Weston Road. Here, concerned Toronto resident Ann Martin first found evidence of the birds' tragic fate. The red meta...
