One of my neighbors lets his pigeons out to get their wings some exercise, and they fly all around the neighborhood, staying pretty much close together like this.

Happy Easter everyone.

We have lots of 'Pigeon Fanciers' in our area too!...Sometimes do lots of pigeon racing too!

Great catch on this JB

Happy Easter to you Jimbob.
To get so many as clear as this is no mean feat. Well done.
My father used to keep pigeons.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I always found it amazing how they found their way home after delivering a message, JimboB.
I think it would be a great hobby.
Excellent shot and Happy Easter to you.

Great motion capture Jim - I'm not having much luck with that kind of shot with the seagulls that fly around our little lake out back.

Very nice! Guys and Girls out for exercise! :) I didn't know that pigeons would flock like that and return to roost.

I'd like to see this photo (and that recently seen of the reclining cat) in a large frame, mural like, on a wall


Very nice!

Good sharp capture Jimbob. There is about a dozen hanging around our work place. Not able to photograph them because the boss would frown on that at the job site.

I remember back in the day, there were a lot of Belgium and Dutch folk used to raise pigeon's. Nice shot.

Cool, you caught them all with their wings in the same position.
They must have all been gliding.

A nice shot JimBob - pigeons have a nice flight path, but not much pattern.
