Roof stained by nest reflection

Things are quiet at this moment on the roof of the Metropolitan. 

Monster Pigeon is far off searching for another roofy twig to add to his growing aerie.  Monstress Pigeonette is still at large.  We may therefore investigate the architecture of this edifice and even climb up on it briefly. 

Yet beware of every inching shadow, desist at any hint of Coo, walk softly with a quiet foot. A solitary error could undermine the fragile balance, and a single snap could bring back Monster Pigeon. 

Remember, even a little 10 inch pigeon can fly at 50 miles per hour!

Tulip Hunter Succeeds! (Photo by Lara C. of Chicago).
