Colourful Birds In Flight Mousepad by biglnet

These birds are painted homing pigeons, which are painted different colours by the owners so that they can identify them in flight. This is a local tradition in Spain and the owners assure me that the paint does the birds no harm!
This particular photograph was a bit of a fluke really as my wife and I were on the local mountainside (more of a large hill really!) when the birds flew overhead. They looked so pretty in flight. I think they look beautiful with the sea in the background.
