22. Discovery Online, The Skinny On ... Why You Never See Baby Pigeons
In addition to adapting flawlessly to the total naturefake of a human habitat, maybe pigeons have also adapted perfectly to life It doesn t make them die.

Why You Never See Baby Pigeons
By Hannah Holmes Maybe the old ones never die. My Portland flock could be the self-same bunch of birds that filched clams from the Abenaki Indians and pooped upon approaching Viking boats. In addition to adapting flawlessly to the total nature-fake of a human habitat, maybe pigeons have also adapted perfectly to life: It doesn't make them die. But because that's improbable, and because I was terribly curious about what kind of guy intentionally associates with pigeons, I called John Heppner, president of the National Pigeon Association. "Absolutely," he said in a sobering tone of voice when I asked if there is such a thing as a baby pigeon. "I've been raising 'em for fifty years." What he went on to tell me gave me a new respect for the grubby, shining, strutting, victorious pigeon.
First of all, unlike dippy little English sparrows or robins, pigeons hide their nests.
Heppner said that back when they emerged in Asia (evidently, they were nature-living animals, once), pigeons were cliff-dwellers. So now they balance their messy nests of sticks inside the guts of bridges, or atop tall buildings, or on top of your air conditioner. Secondly, pigeons are parents

of the pictures they took. Carrier Pigeons Turn Cameramen SOMETHING entirely new in aerial photography has been developed in Munich, Germany. In place of trained photographers carried aloft in airplanes or observation balloons, camera equipped pigeons are released to fly over the object to be photographed. The pigeons do not fly at random. Months of training and selection are required before a few birds are chosen for camera work. Then their flights in each direction are timed so that the trainer knows exactly at what time the bird will be over a certain point. It is then a simple matter to time the camera to expose the film at the point desired.
The cameras do not impede the flight of the birds.

LEISUREVILLE
"Leisureville is not only an entertaining chronicle but also a perceptive analysis of the social, economic, and political implications of segregated, privatized living.
"Blechman thoroughly and with good humor delves into the largely American, and growing, phenomenon of gated, age-segregated communities. Highly recommended.”

FISH, CHIPS...AND PIGEON
May 20, 2008
DEEP FRIED PIGEON
by David Paine
STAFF at a fish and chip shop in Worcester city centre got the shock of their life when a pigeon flew in through the window and fell into a deep fat fryer.
The hapless bird squeezed through a fanlight window at Angel Plaice and flew around the chippy.
Dawn Jennings, Angel Plaice assistant manager, said: "I was quite stunned. I had just put some chips on and then this pigeon came in. It was trying to get out and was banging against the windows, but as it tried to get out it rebounded and fell in one of the fryers.
"It must have been a painful death. It was quite distressing at the time, but we can laugh about it now."
Mrs Jennings said at least one worker got in a flap and ran out of the shop screaming as the unusal event unfolded at about 4pm on Wednesday.

A Report on Pigeon Aerial Photography
Performance
February 5-6, 2003
Multnomah County Public Library, Portland, OR. This performance discusses the history of aerial photography and documents my experiments with pigeon aerial photography. I raise pigeons and am building small cameras that they can use to take photos. I have used APS film cameras and small digital cameras along with custom timing circuits and harnesses. The preliminary results are promising. I performed the work in progress at Performance Works Northwest in November 2002 and at the Multnomah County Public Library Central Branch on February 5-6 2003. You can view the slides (in PDF format) online. Note: this is a large file.

'Power Napping' In Pigeons
ScienceDaily (Mar. 6, 2008) See also: Interestingly, the independent evolution of similar sleep states in birds and mammals might be related to the fact that each group also independently evolved large brains capable of performing complex cognitive processes. In their actual study, researchers from the Max-Planck Institute of Ornithology in Seewiesen, Germany showed for the first time that birds compensate for sleep loss in a manner similar to humans . During SWS, the synchronous, slow oscillations of neurons are reflected in the EEG (Electroencephalogram), as large slow-waves with a frequency of less than 4 Hz, hence the name slow-wave sleep. The amount of slow-waves is positively correlated with the depth of sleep, and may reflect restorative processes occurring during sleep. Indeed, humans, and other mammals, recover from periods of sleep loss, primarily by increasing the amount of slow-waves, particularly during the first hours of SWS, in essence sleeping more intensely. Although birds also show SWS, it has been unclear whether they show a similar response to sleep loss. Dolores Martinez-Gonzalez and colleagues at the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology in Seewiesen found now, that birds - in this case pigeons - also do not simply shrug of sleep loss.
