Help's to understand them

I love this cute Pocket Guide To Pigeon Watching. When I was a toddler, I began watching pigeons and was and still interested in their behavior. I must have gotten too close to them one time or more, because I picked up histoplasmosis, which is spread by breathing the spores of a fungus that can be found in their droppings. I have scars on the back of my eyes to prove it. And I remember my father putting strong fencing in the places on the outside of our house where they had nest. He waited until they left the nest, cleaned it out and put in the fencing. I can remember his swearing while he did it. Well, it was a huge undertaking, our side of the duplex had so many places that were perfect for pigeon homes, lots of corners with roof coverings. After he did that to our house, the pigeons left us. Then robins, sparrows, cardinals and meadowlarks plus a few red-tailed hawks decided on the property lines. This guide is packed with useful and sometimes quirky information. You will know what to do it you find an injured or a pet pigeon, some history of pigeon palaces, how their anatomy is weird, and that they can determine which tumor is benign or malignant. Look it up, it is a great study. I have to be careful and not tell you too much, you have got to read this book for your education and entertainment.

GREAT BOOK!! My wife grew up in Brooklyn & her Uncle used to take her up to the roof where he kept pigeons. She helped him feed them. Great memories for her!!

Siendo las palomas animales com los que convivimos casi a diario, queriendo o no, es un libro ideal para quitarse de mitos, aprender cosas sobre estos animales y tranquilizarse un poco a sabiendas que no son "ratas con alas" ni transmisores de enfermedades. Como muchos animales son víctimas del abandono, indiferencia y sobrepoblación humana. Es una lástima que no existan traducciones al menos al Español. Un regalo ideal para animalistas, pero una lectura obligada para los que no lo son.

A fun, easy, and informative read. Pigeons deserve more love — and this book makes a great case for why everyone should give them a second look

I bought this for my Daughter who has just moved into a new top floor flat and found that the pigeons like to sunbathe nearby, they have become her new thing to watch daily! I purchased this as a bit of a joke gift for her but actually, having had a look through it before wrapping its really blooming great! The book is really informative and I've actually found out things I never knew about those pesky pigeons that seem to be an endless nuisance to most people. Who knew they were such clever interesting birds. I can now honestly say the pigeon is an underrated bird! The book had lots of pics included to support information provided and was really well presented overall. I'd happily purchase this again and would recommend for any pigeon lover
