Not too high, not too low...

I heard that pigeons prefer to perch within defined limits: far enough from the ground to be free from predators and people, but close enough to see any food on the ground.
These photos, taken this afternoon, show exactly that.

These are all the pigeons that were perched on this building:



All on the same floor!

Those are cool pictures, Teresa.
I love the one sticking his head through the upright pieces.
It seems there's always one who has to be a little different from the group.
And it looks like pigeons are no different. Too funny.

But it could also be that they are just socializing because I have observed the same here - at a much higher level!

Great photos. Clearly shows how pigeons like to stick together - a bit of social preening going on too.

There definitely is some social interaction going on. Maybe the one sticking his head through the bars is on food look-out duty...?
