And thus continues my infatuation with one of the grimiest animals on the planet: the pigeon.

Something about pigeons fascinates me. Their groupthink is amazing. They move simultaneously, but never in unison. They feed off the streets and glide freely from building to building in cities across the world.

San Diego is certainly no St. Mark’s Square, but you should expect to see me document these strange creatures’ interactions with our city in the weeks and months to come.

This particular pack was chomping on a bit of bread in the streets and scattered as cars barreled towards them.
