@zachary_abroad: One of our favorite things about living in Lisbon is something most people complain about: the pigeons. 🐦 While living abroad in Portugal, we’ve noticed that a lot of people see pigeons as dirty, annoying city birds. Meanwhile, @Marina and I stop to say hello to them every chance we get. One thing we’ve learned since moving to Portugal is that it’s the little things that make a place feel like home. The food, the views, the walkable streets… and apparently, the pigeons too. If you’re thinking about moving to Portugal, planning on living in Lisbon, or just curious about what life abroad is actually like, here’s another small piece of everyday life in this city that makes us smile. #Portugal #MovingToPortugal #LivingInPortugal #Lisbon #LivingInLisbon

I wonder if in Portugal the word for pigeon is the same as doves like in Spanish.

Their role changed drastically from sacred birds to essential messengers, and finally to modern urban wildlife. All because of us, and people forgets that!!

it's not just Lisbon, in London you will get a fine if you feed the pigeons.

We domesticated, used them than left them to fend for themselfs. They are smart social creatures.
