 In the place where I work there's a protected window with bricks which creates a safe place between those bricks and the window. So, two pigeons found it the perfect place to create their nest. Had two eggs in it and I was waiting for the event so that I could capture the moment they hatch...

Well, friday afternoon the eggs where intact but today I find them hatched and the pigeons with the youngs had gone...

Left me some feathers thought... this is one of them...

Good detail on the feather and you've placed it in an interesting environment.

Sorry you missed the big event! :-)

Such a 'tranquill' and serene setting. This image is incredibly soothing to look upon! Your tones, lines, angles and colors match so well. My eyes quitely follow the lines. Very complimentary image.

(has anyone ever seen a baby pigeon? I don't know anyone that's seen a baby pigeon....too bad you weren't able to get a photo of them...sorry)

Wait. The babies couldn't fly! What happened? Did the parents move them when they hatched? Poor little baby birds.
Sorry you missed the hatching.
Like the light on this picture.

Nice story. the feather looks somewhat like a writing quill. I like the feeling here. The feather just stands out nicely.
