Just a few scenes from Chicago for this #wednesdaywalk by @tattodjay

The pigeons own Chicago.

The pigeons love to hang around populated areas during lunch downtown.

They fly back and forth between union station and ogilvie station hoping to get office drone food bits.

Plus a few people dump corn and millet feed every now and then for the entertainment of seeing piles of pigeons.

They finally start settling down on the bridge control buildings to cover them in poop.

Now for a bit of walking around the Willis tower. I have a friend who works in the tinted building. The tint kind of makes things gloomy inside.

Here is the tourist spot where people pose in the parkinglot to have the Willis tower behind them.

This thing is so tall it is easy to warp it in panorama photos.

Now for a boom era building. This is Union Station when you could support a family on one income and there were less regulations. They built them big and to last back then.

It is now wintery and its dark in the morning and at 5 when I rush to the train station.

Never rush a night setting photo lol. It ended up making kind of an interesting wavy line pattern.

Now its time to do it all over again. Morning sunrise colors in suburbia.

1000007710.jpg
And time to go back to the early morning city where it is mostly abandoned.

But the pigeons never leave the city.

That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)
