This little dude was resting on the walkway. I’m no coroner, but the slaughter had to be recent, judging from how shiny the blood was. I know it’s not a dove, but I couldn’t help thinking of a sad irony on peace, and I couldn’t help photographing it.
Sorry for the gore, and for the diversion from the nf-sooc month: I only had my phone with me.
@summerfield I believe it was a gull. They chase pigeons like there’s no tomorrow. But the prey fell on a crowded walkway and the predator didn’t dare to face the bigger predator - man...
@s4sayer sadly, I fear the answer is there... there’s a price for “peace”, and it’s paid in blood. Innocent. @taffy thank you very much, Taffy. Very sad, even if I don’t like pigeons that much! that red shiny spot of blood w claimed some attention. @joysabin thanks a lot. That was post processing of course, after all it’s just an iPhone shot.
@bkbinthecity @maggiemae @cocobella thanks. It was weird...
@lostphojo Thanks a lot!
