Pigeon at Eau Claire market


One quick shot, taken when I was with friends who were trying to sort out a parking ticket machine at Eau Claire market yesterday afternoon : ) In order to get a ticket for stall number 11, apparently the machine requires you to punch in 111, lol. There are Pigeons all over the place and this one landed briefly on this small pile of snow. I hadn't been downtown for many years and the only reason I was there yesterday was to hopefully find the Great Horned Owl family that people have been seeing. It was a much longer walk than I was expecting, but we were so lucky to find them. As is often the case, Mom (?) and the three owlets were high up in different trees, not posing too well for most of the time, and not in good light. The ice in that area was so treacherous, so I moved as little as possible, and extremely cautiously. A real treat to see this little family, and so early in the year! Mom must have laid the eggs near the beginning of January, as the owlets were huge and either branched or fledged. Most unusual - wonder why this happened.
