pagan - thanks! :) funny thing here in the burbs - the pigeons don't venture into the backyards - actually they don't come here at all I assume it has to do with a pecking order that I don't understand in NY they were everywhere - now I have to visit them
Where I live we see more seagulls than pigeons ... but they sure don't seem to 'mix' much. My Camera Critters features Molly today at Small Reflections. Hugs and blessings,
Definitely for sure. A great picture of a fascinating species who have not received the billing they perhaps deserve. I seldom think to take their pictures. They seem to always spend their lunchtimes together.

This photo works so well in black and white. Nicely done, Di!
I like watching the stupid pigeons in the city. I guess I'm easily amused. ;-)

Probably their break time!
Wow that's a lot of pigeons! Their feathers are all ruffled up, are they cold?

Definitely! The Marina Pigeon's Union is the toughest to crack. They are hard-core union birds!
mimi - lol - before they went back to work pooping on my car
wil - it was very very windy!! temps in the 30s but the wind chill was wicked
storyteller - they definitely keep away from each other
NoBS - and I bet the gull union has NJ mob ties lol
You certainly captured them well. I noticed very few of them have their necks fully extended.
Really liked the first shot in your sky series too. Great angles.
Well, must be break time. There sure are a LOT of them. Cool photo.
a really great shot for Critters.
Do you think the 3 up front are the union leaders, trying to decide what to tell the rest of the guys?
That or they're trying to keep warm together! Thanks for visiting Spatter...
This many pigeons together make me nervous. Unless I have my umbrella.
Very nice. I like it in b&w. Lisa
Very good pic! I like the B/W Thanks for your visit, and have a great rest of the weekend :)
Maybe it's a boys and gulls kinda thing and these guys are the boys?!?
Thats funny thanks. I love the photo. Have a wonderful week
Funny and so are your comments! I can't help but say it because it's true...It looks great in B&W.
Nice black & white. Very artistic:)
I think they just want to blend in with all the other clicks. Maybe these pigeons are part of a 'feather gang'. I love it in B&W.
Birds of a feather flock together. :)

fantastic capture!
These pigeons certainly must feel at home!!
Brilliant catch and nicely done in black and white.
It certainly does look to be safety in numbers! Great shot :)

Nice black & white shot !!!
Here in Nevada there are not that many unions, so the gulls and pigeons hand out together :-)
It looks like someone has stolen some of their legs. Bad neighbourhood? ;) LoL!
Great shot for the critters. I'm playing too :)
That's a lotta bird!
