They were there, and little else was, of course, but I was also appreciating their beauty&#8230;which most of the time I overlook. The iridescence on the throat of this otherwise basically gray Rock Pigeon really stands out.  And note the bright red eye. This bird is actually a pretty fair example of the typical wild Rock Pigeon, harkening back to the original stocks that came over from Africa to colonize North America.
