Isn't that a whole tenement's coveys worth of pigeons? I don't know what the per capita of pigeons was before the mass evictions. Was that a post WWII phenomena?
Are the cats and pigeons of Venice in synergy? (My mind wanders, but the pigeons were in Spider-Man:Far From Home. I don't get why instead of Opera they didn't in Prague set the kids up with Black Light Theater. It's Prague, summer break seems a weird time for a carnival. A music festival--)
I startled a mourning dove the other day. Didn't even see it before I'd 'snuck up' on it.
Heh! Sorry to break you!
I've been a photographer for over 40 years, and sometimes I look for symmetry, sometimes I look to break symmetry. It just struck me as curious that they'd congregate in that one window.
We had a gas station in town that huge numbers of pigeons would gather on the power line closest to it. We speculated that Radagast the Brown worked there undercover and the birds were there to be close to him. The gas station closed, the pigeons stopped gathering there. Clearly our guess was correct: Radagast had moved on.
