Spring Time :
_______________

...It is
that time
Of
The year
Again...
Spring is
In the air
And
In the
Wings
As well
Blossom
On Trees
And
I wish to
Pay back
To nature
Its debt
On me .

What an amazing coloured eye this Pigeon has. A superb shot of this fine looking bird and some lovely seasonal sentiments to accompany it. A great post Alok.

They're so lovely these pigeons (I thought it was a parrot at first LOL - a good job I don't spend my time in the ID forum isn't it!)

Love your prose on this one too Alok.... spring has sprung here too.
