i may have eaten a pigeon



due to internet mishaps there has been a delay on the morocco post
anyway, i have consumed a pigeon on the first night in some kind of pastry
i didnt realize this till the day after when the meal matched a pigeon dish described by c-squared in the morocco guide
any way morocco was interesting
lots of cats including dead ones in restaurants
fishy was scared by some gatos
not many pigeons... probably because people are eating them
but there were some weird lookin pigeons on this one roof top

bilbobaggins



back from the illustrious ghery guggenheim in bilbao and drinkin vino tinto en rioja
fun trip... then proceeded to spend the beautiful sunday in bed or hugging a toilet with some wretched disease.... while everyone else went to the beach.... grrrr

pigeons were not common at the gug... no nooks or crannies for the pigeons to hang out on in ghery's titanium facade, a few walked around on the ground but they did not seem to happy. however the calatrava bridge did offer up some intresting pigeon spots.


also ive started to dabble in hdri... thanks to spooky fish for giving me some direction on this
.... so here is a giant hrdi puppy

praha,cz dtf

following the poultry adventures in turkey we jetted off to praha, home to the largest castle in the world, a cool bridge, the OST, and Fred and Ging.

not much on the pigeon front here, just a lot of standard flocks, nothing to interesting, except on czech law that prohibits throwing "any sort of rubbish" on to the streets, which could explain a lack of major pigeon activity.
but any who, did find some wooly hats, and mammoths.




















and some cousins of the flying rat hanging out on the charles bridge.

gobble gobble



back from spring break now, a while since my last delve into the world of flying rats. this is primarily due to projects and the week of turkey and prague.


in turkey there was not a heavy pigeon population, they were there dont get me wrong.

however on a boat ride down the Bosporus straight on our way to asia, I encountered two

 brits and three turks, who calibrated in creating a typhoon of sea gulls, the aquatic cousin of the pigeon, flying around us because of the pieces of bread they were throwing.

also like the alhambra... lots of kitties

got that cat scratch fever


an interesting note about the wildlife of the alhambra and merida's roman ruins. lots of kitties.... i mean every 10 there's some cats hanging out somewhere.


the cats at the alhambra now how to play the tourists... they come by look cute and get people to throw them food.... their savvy. 













this includes the cat that was temporarily adopted by the studio as we were sketching and it came by and hung out with us for about an hour or 2..... his name is tinny tim.


















on the flip side there are the cats of merida that form clans and populate the roman temple of diana. these cats are hardcore street warriors.




but enough about cats... this is about rats with wings.
