I wondered the same thing as I had gone to...Karen,<br /><br />I wondered the same thing as I had gone to church at the Cathedral perhaps 10 years earlier and there were hundreds of pigeons around the Cathedral, then I got a theatre job that made going to church there, because of the commute, impossible--couldn't make the matinee. Then when I began watching Tristan and Isolde there were pigeons but not nearly the number previously. I then began talking to people and asking about it. Turns out that there had been a number of pigeon feeders back in the day, one woman in particulr who had a connection at, supposedly anyway, the hospital cafeteria for left over bread, rolls, and other pigeon yummies. The woman passed away and the hawks moved in, hence the pigeon population severe reduction. At times there are no more than a hand full that forage directly around the cathedral as opposed to the previous hundreds. <br /><br />At least that is the story I was told.Donegal Brownehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09809720759418462703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27276563.post-9785560184233630382010-03-14T08:24:44.387-04:002010-03-14T08:24:44.387-04:00What happened to the pigeon population near the Ca...What happened to the pigeon population near the Cathedral?Karen Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306986336556283751noreply@blogger.com
