Closing Bell: Bushwick's Pigeon Peeps

Chris Arnade has a nifty photo set on Flickr documenting people in Bushwick who keep pigeons. The caption for the photo above says that it’s of Willie, who has three coops and is believed to keep the most pigeons in Brooklyn right now. Click through for a couple more shots.

The caption for this shot says it’s of a group of pigeons just before a hawk grabs one.

This photo is of Joey, who has lived in Bushwick all his life and “also runs a feed store that has a weekly pigeon auction.”
