BirdNote; Pigeons Love Cities - But We Loved Them First
Description:
Though some might see them as winged rats in today’s cities, pigeons have a long-standing bond with people -- especially in our urban environment. From Mesopotamia, 7000 years ago, to the urban skyscrapers of today, pigeons have been a constant. They’ve served as meat and sacrifices, navigators and messengers, racers, hobby supplies and even science experiments.
