Neither more nor less

Between L.E.S. Jewels and his cane and some predaceous Red Tailed Hawks , pigeons have not faired well in Tompkins Square Park this last winter and spring . But today things were different for one member of our park fowl : two kind and considerate young women took the initiative and cut some plastic line or cord from this pigeon's legs that had wrapped around it's legs and hobbled it rendering it imobile . When all the line had been removed the pigeon was set free and it flew away to a near-by tree .
