The Colouring of Pigeons

The birds featured in the National Pigeon Assocation reinvent the typical 'rats with wings' viewpoint on pigeons, which I share, with some rendered barely recognisable as if they were a different species completely. I quite like the images as a photography collection too but at worst they're a good demonstration of how odd these birds can look from the standard feral variety! The title of this post derives from the electro opera 'Tomorrow in a Year' (which I've previously posted about), based on Charles Darwin and focuses on his breakthroughs considering 'On the Origin of Species' where the research of pigeon skulls was heavily featured.
