Urban life

Waiting at a take-away food shop in an underground station in Amsterdam, I was fascinated by this pigeon snacking a bag of chips. He had opened it, took one, and threw it behind, to eat it later. Then went back to pick another one, it was a kind of self service snack bar for him. He only stepped aside when people passed him to close but returned immediately.

  3. Yes they get really bold, I guess it depends on how hungry they are :)

  4. Ja waar eten is zijn duiven. Bij de markt in Rotterdam zitten er honderden en sommigen zijn zo dik die kunnen nog amper vliegen. Dit is een slimmerikje, misschien wil hij zijn vriendjes tracteren?

  5. Dearest Marianne,
    Funny how daring they become and are not even too afraid either.
    Hugs to you,

  6. Interesting that the pigeon is so far underground. Must be a homing pigeon so he can find hes way out.
