The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone here in Montreal on March 5th. I saw these pigeons and I love birds, and what is special about this group of pigeons is that there was only one that is all white! You can click on any image to see a larger view.

The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal! I have shared this video before, about a few months ago, but some of you may not have seen it, and it is a favourite! Enjoy! :)

For those of you who remember a group from the 80's...The Captain and Tennille...well, this video will brighten your day if you liked that group.

Hope you enjoy this; I thought it was great! :)
