How cold is it?

Well, I heard Alaska was warmer than here (Northeast U.S.) today! Anyway, a shot I took at an intersection (through the windshield, hence th blue tone), waiting for the incredibly long light to change. Just a small collection of pigeons gathering together for warmth. I've noticed they like to perch en masse on particular light poles on the highway. Hawks like to sit on some too!

That reminds me of the Pixar short, On the Birds *g*

Hehe, pigeons freak me out. And we have one morning class where they all like to perch on the windowsill outside our classroom window and try to warm up. And then they just stare at us....

Dude, don't give traumatize me... :p I'll never leave class again!

Heh, then never rent out Hitchcock's THE BIRDS, since, er, well, there is a school involved ;)

I've often questioned the wisdom of hanging out on electrical wires. Roast pigeon, anyone?

I feel your pain. High of 26, low of 13. :(

Well, a squirrel burned down a school yesterday. Apparently it touched two electrical wires, connected, up in flames (as it fell to the ground) and torched the school...

I think you need to visit california...we are currently not on fire anywhere (although little rain means summer time is a bad time to visit)so visit now! I live just north of San Fran and, well...I feel a little bit guilty. Only a little bit...the storm that hit the midwest, east coast, & New England area made me think of the movie "The Day After Tomorrow".

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Yeah, feels like it! Ooh, CA isn't burning up? Wow! ;)

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

Yes, they make me think of those two crows from the old cartoons. Only there's a hell of a lot more here :D

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Oh, Hekyl and Jekyl, the crows! :)

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

Yes! (I couldn't stand them *LOL*)
