THREE PIGEONS
December '25 - February '26
Mark writes: In these humble pigeons, like our city of London, there is beauty and wonder to be found. Here are three, isolated on their pink, mint and yellow skies but united in this triptych.
One of the reasons I am intrigued by our flying friends is that they remind me to think of God. At the baptism of Jesus, the Spirit descends ' like a dove' and the dove in question is a colomba-livia - a rock dove, also known as a rock pigeon. All our feral pigeons are columba-livia and so it follows that the Spirit of God might just have looked, for that moment in biblical history, like a normal pigeon. In my own journey of life I've found this a great revelation and comfort - that Holiness is not a matter of outward appearances and God is interested in every part of our lives, maybe especially the bits we think look more like a pigeon than a dove.
