Brooklyn Pigeon Battles

(Produced by ) (Photo: ) Happy Thanksgiving at Big Shed!! This holiday we're thankful for everyone who's been
so supportive of Big Shed.  We're feeling the love.  Thanks so much for
listening and for sharing your amazing work.  Woohoo!!!!!  (much luv, jen and shea)
But instead of Turkey, we're offering you
a big serving of pigeons.  WTF?!  That's right pigeon haters, this week
they've come home to roost at Big Shed. 
(audio) and (photo) just started work on a new project about pigeons keepers in Brooklyn, New Yorkâa group of folks they've found to be surprisingly large and diverse.  Owen and Allison were kind enough to send us sights and sounds from their first day of recording.  The voice in the piece and face in the photo is Michael Scott, whose father had pigeons before him. And this particular recording was made at one of his coops in , on top of his grandmotherâs house.
