Pigeons and roofs

Glad I found this community even a bit abandoned, few minutes ago I just named same a new folder in my photo base.

Already told you about my gorgeous flat view, and words sometimes can not describe entire scenery, not selfish to share my everyday sight.

The white pigeon, and neither do the pigeons of other colors, strive to roost every morning with the first sun. We share the 'air space' with them, so to speak, meet our first neighbors. Previous time when I lived here each window has spikes on it, pigeons worst enemies, those spikes kept them away from windows and prevent pooping all over - didn't liked it much, no matter how boring pigeons actually are, spikes seemed cruel.

Currently they are removed, or birds go rid of them. Except pigeon party, part of enjoyable morning moments while I am preparing coffee is this chimney.

Looks nice, but it has devastating influence on environment and air quality.

The architecture in this neighborhood dates back to the seventies, at the same time when multi-storey building trend started. Well recognizable concrete and red bricks aesthetic gives a great contrast against pale blueish green landscape. Balconies in circular windows certainly look nice as an aesthetic detail, but practicality has not reached the high level, lot's of space is taken for the sake of it and those could be a nice useful balconies.

Bedroom window offers view over long distance municipality, their sight of the sunset must be perfect, no need to mention most of architecture is family house based but be sure streets are so narrow and not comfortable at all.
From afar everything looks well distanced until you approach and figure out it's Legoland in natural size.

A bit to the left my view is closed, yeah that's how much time was needed - few years, to build to whole new apartment complex and take away wider cityscape than it is now.

McDonaldization didn't left out this part of capital neither, maybe once I got fries there and that was all, hungry drivers wouldn't agree with me as drive way is the most busiest section of the whole fast food.

Peeking Lidl in the background is more of my cup of tea, especially peanut creamy rollers we recently discovered.

The entire settlement was built in the form of a concentric circle, the view from the air leaves you breathless, abundance of conifers and green parks between the buildings make life here more pleasant, especially during hot summer days.

...and that's the most pleasant living room from the top view.

You have good views. Very entertaining... wow, and pigeons! since I live in a rural area of Havana, I only see trees and flowers and a very few houses when I go up on the roof. But I really like it here because I even have a river, a swamp, crocodiles, snakes, bird watching, a peacock neighbor that I often talk to and so many friends in the surrounding yards, like pigs, chickens, cows. It's a paradise. 😁

a peacock neighbor

Really? They are wonderful birds, but as I hear about them also loud, is your at least quiet?
When did you go last time crocodile spotting, I would like to see them in person 😍

Well, mine is silent. So far it hasn't given me any chores. The crocodiles are loose in the swamp I went but I really don't want to have a close encounter with them.

Check out this post.

You put yourself out to a real adventure, seems like we both aren't the best birdwatching buddies, mostly I am also wrong dressed usually wearing screaming pink rain jacket 😂
Is this lagoon where crocodiles can be seen?

😂

Yes, there. Exciting, right?

My imagination is a very fertile ground 😁😛

Spooky excitement, you never know what might get out of the bushes :D

Nice views!!!! Last and bedroom are my favorite.
