Pigeon on fishing pier, St. Augustine Beach, Florida.
Pigeons are not at the top of most people's list of favorite birds. They aren't at the top of mine...but then again they certainly aren't at the bottom either. They're just too common for most of us to say "wow, did you see that beautiful pigeon". But, if you really stop to look, they are a fascinating and beautiful bird that has adapted remarkably well to its changing environment.
You can find a very interesting web site from Cornell Lab of Ornithology (Project Pigeon Watch) devoted to getting individuals involved in international research on pigeons here.
