Homing Pigeons, Dabburiya, Israel
家鸽，以色列



中文注释：（网友翻译，有待改进，请跟帖发表自己看法）
家鸽。以色列。
他们是人们用“岩鸽”驯化而来。人们为了锻炼鸽子的飞行能力，常用绑着红布条的竹竿驱赶他们，不让降落。而科学家们推测，鸽子怕红色，是由于他们的野外祖先曾经历森林大火。




英文注释：
Homing Pigeons, Dabburiya, Israel

Homing pigeons relax in a loft in Galilee. Part of Israel, Galilee was the cradle of Christianity, and some say the Bible is still the region's best guidebook.
