It is not as obvious

It is not as obvious in the Web version of the New York Times, but Waiting for the A Train, the Sophisticated Pigeon, Randy Kennedyıs story about Pidgeons riding the A Train, made it onto the front page of the Times today. They are New York pidgeons after all and yes, they do take the subway sometimes, some by accident, some seemingly on purpose. (The Photographs by William C. Lopez are really great.) When you think about it, for all Pidgeons riding the subway for free is perfectly legal too, since the New York subway is free for all who is short enough to fit under the turnstile. (A rule created for Kids, but might work for pidgeons, if they were too lazy to fly onto the platform.) Not that pidgeons would care about MTA rules, it is just a friendly, nice little New York detail. I really like these photographs.
