Strut Your Stuff!

Pigeons, ducks and geese are plentiful along the waterway at Alton Baker Park. This Rock Pigeon, seemed to be so sure if itself, all decked out in such beautiful colors. I found this information about Rock Pigeons: http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Rock_Pigeon/id

"Color Pattern - Variable in color, but most birds are bluish gray with two black bands on the wing and a black tip to the tail. Most birds have iridescent throat feathers. Wing patterns may include two bars, dark spots, or can be plain. The tail is usually dark tipped."

I am continually in awe of the beauty and design found everywhere in nature. We humans can only copy such superior design. To me it is evidence of superior wisdom.

Pigeons are beautiful. I don't know why some people don't like them.

Iridescence can be tricky to capture but the lighting has caught it at just the right angle, a handsome bird
