one after another

 Birds are so funny. They follow each other everywhere. While walking around Central yesterday I saw these guys in the hedges in front of the post office. They saw me and decided it would be safer to move up higher on the building. Once the first bird went, a succession of the rest followed in one fast sweep. It was crazy. It makes me wonder why all birds think the same.

So many trees, so many birds.

blue jay, blue day

From another walk in the Garden. So many birds were out yesterday to celebrate St. Patrick's Day in Boston. This blue jay was going off on a peanut.

feather frenzy

I scared the pigeons. They are so synchronized, it's like they become one cloud of feathers surrounding the street, instead of a million individual birds flying separately.

I don't know if pigeons get fatter in the winter, or are just all puffed out to try to keep warm. Either way, they're huge.
