Ob diese Raubvögel mit den Pelikanen wohl eine Lebensgemeinschaft bilden? Grossartiges Bild, Rabirius.
Ich wünsche frohe Adventstage und Gesundheit. Bleib bitte munter. Ernst

I’d be scurrying instead of “examining”.
But if I weren’t terrified, I’d marvel at how such different birds came to congrgate in the same tight street.

The difference in scale between the people and birds reminds me that less than a thousand years ago New Zealand was still home to two species of moas that could reach a height of 3.6m:

Excellent work, Rabirius. The birds should feel menacing, but the people look so casual and relaxed (the man looking up like it’s an exhibit) — it’s interesting and uncomfortable all at the same time. Love your creations.
