More pigeon photos

I got a better view of the pigeon chick this morning. It's quite odd looking, especially the beak. It looks way to big for a bird that size. Maybe it'll grow into it. The yellow feather are also strange. I'd never have thought of pigeon chicks as yellow.

I remember we had this book Fly High, Fly Low in my 3rd grade classroom. It's all about a a couple of pigeon living in Union Square. Even at that point I thought it a bit odd to have a book about pigeons, but was fascinated by the idea of what real pigeon chicks looked like.
