Brno in the Czech Republic is a city afraid of pigeons. Or maybe it hates them. I'm not sure, but just after a short stay in this city I noticed that...
...There are so many anti-pigeon measures in the city that there are no birds left at all.
- Metal spikes on window sills and on each pole;
- Window stickers in the shape of a predator;
- And every place where birds could land is protected;
Brno is a city without birds.
Living in Kaunas, it is common to see starlings or thrushes even in the middle of the city (not to mention tits, sparrows, ducks, gulls and pigeons).
Living in Brno, you won't see a single bird. Not even in the park.
...For me it was like a city without a soul.
What are they protecting themselves from?
