Proud Pigeon II

Beautiful, proud pigeon showing off his plumage while sitting in a ring. He is the right-facing image in a pair of similar pigeon images. The other can be found here – proud pigeon. Both of these black and white bird images could be easily colorized and used in a number of ways by anyone looking for images of birds or pigeons.

The Boy Who Knew What The Birds Said contained a wonderful array of drawings from one of my favorite children’s book illustrators, Dugald Stewart Walker (1883-1937). It was published in 1918.
