SYDNEY LANE COVE TUNNEL COLLAPSE Sylvester the Robot rescues Tweety-Bird

I's going to make a relavent entry then found someone had already let their fingers do the typing, so I lifted this from a public newsgroup. Hopefully I have entered the url links right, to be click-easy.

A BOMB squad robot has made a mercy dash to rescue a pet bird trapped in
the Sydney unit block teetering on the edge of collapse.

About 50 residents were evacuated early on Wednesday when a section of
the Lane Cove Tunnel project caved-in, leaving the building cracking
apart and hanging over a gaping abyss.
In the emergency rush, bird-lover Karen Bruce forgot to take her
three-month-old cockatiel Tweety, leaving the bird trapped as the sole
living creature on the site.

It was left to the un-named robot (perhaps "Sylvester"?) today to rescue the caged bird from Ms
Bruce's unit that is above the section that suffered the most damage.
