Pigeons are one of the most intelligent birds on the planet. They can be found worldwide and are gentle, plump and small billed birds. Pigeons have a very specific strut and head bob and can often be found in flocks.
I had an especially fun time photographing this Felt Pigeon replica in Carl Schurz Park in New York City. I was most shocked by the 'not true to life" sizing of my Pigeon compared to all those real pigeons that flocked around me.
This wool felt replica stands 6" tall and stretches 8" from tip of tail to tip of his beak. Hand and machine embroidery with wrapped wire feet. The feet are posable for optimal standing position.
