Like me, my sons are enamored with the pigeons of Paris (remember this post at the Louvre). There are roughly 25 pigeons for each city inhabitant! And wherever we go, I suspect my sons search out their lot of 25 ;)

Jardin du Luxembourg is such a lovely garden. We really enjoyed the gardens of Paris - they are wonderful places for people to meet, to people watch, and for families to play. Obviously your son thought the pigeons were great too!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week.
I love to watch children with pigeons. They are convinced that one day they will catch one, or get very close to a wild creature that has the magical ability to fly! Beautiful photos, beautiful garden.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful place to spend a couple of hours and watch the life pass by ...or to go on a pigeon hunt! Lovely images , especially the action photo . I had no idea that there 25 pigeons per city inhabitant....which makes me wonder about the number of rats...per person :(
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and I love that last photo! So much movement and a wonderful artistic capture!
ReplyDeleteAhhh my Mum always called the rats of the sky, bit harsh maybe but they are seriously good at breeding

That first photo - the towering trees and your small son - a fabulous perspective, Catherine.
ReplyDeleteOh! how cool! you guessed, it my mood!!!)
ReplyDeleteI'm very happy for you,
Gorgeous photos but that first one-- love it!! This reminds me so much of a fountain in San Juan where there are hundreds of pigeons. Actually they are all over the city. Suddenly I find myself reminiscing of that place which I visited as a child. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a relaxing post, I can almost imagine myself sitting on a bench taking in the scenes you've provided.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your very kind comments friends :)
ReplyDeleteBoth my kids learned to count by counting pigeons. And Metro stairs. My daughter right there in that garden!!
