Birds on the peak

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

Alpine Choughes (Pyrrhocorax graculus) are sitting on the top of Mangart. They are the beggars of the Alps: you can find them anywhere if there is a good chance of getting some food from hikers.

August, 2007.

The birds are called Alpine Choughs (or Yellow-billed Choughs), lat. Pyrrhocorax graculus - as far as I know, at least.

"So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life." --Peter Gibbons (Office Space)
