Timisoara is home to a gazillion pigeons. They all seem to live in the Piata. For you bird-watchers, there are a few places of note in the square. First, the Pigeon Lady. She holds court in the north end of the Piata.
This morning she is dancing a slow waltz, tossing bread to them as they perch on her shoulders and arms. They allow her to dance through them as if they do this every day, and maybe they do. Maybe this is a daily ritual for them both. Suddenly, it is over. The Pigeon Lady begins to walk away and the pigeons fly into the air to give her room to escape.
