Original – Rock Pigeon, Columba livia, Bangalore India
Reason
Good quality, Ev, resolution. The depth of field is not too deep to make the background distracting, keeping attention on the main pigeon while also showing some of the different behaviours of the pigeon by the out of focus birds in the background. Featured at commons

  • Support I like pigeons very much. They are almost domesticated animals. A town without birds and pigeons would be a sad place. Hafspajen (talk) 12:07, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
