Cover photo description:
Flock of pigeons pecking grain in the mountains surrounding Barcelona, Spain. An Argentine parrot accompanies them at the banquet. The Argentine parrot was a popular companion animal that was sold on Las Ramblas more than 20 years ago. It was a nice looking, cheap and exotic animal but it had a problem: its screams were very annoying. That`s why the owners, fed up, let them fly. Birds that were abandoned or fled began to form flocks and being an animal that adapts well to any environment, began to thrive. There are currently thousands in the city of Barcelona colonizing the parks and even the trees planted on the sidewalks, filling the city with its uproar. They compete with the traditional birds of the city such as the dove, the swallow and they have even displaced, until they are almost annihilated, the sparrows.
