These pigeons are one of the biggest beneficiaries of the colonization of earth by mankind. Wherever human beings go, these birds follow and the density of their population is directly proportional to the density of their human peers. It might come as a surprise to some that some of these birds also live far away from human habitation in rocky cliffs and wilderness. However, even when they live in the wilderness, they know how to make the best out of the human habitations closeby. So close have these guys gotten to human beings that they have been bred and domesticated to create an amazing variety of pigeons, some white, some brown and even some with peacock-like tail feathers!
