Pigeon fire on North San Marcos Rd.

Within minutes of arriving at the Birch’s home after Claire’s memorial service, a fire started which put a damper on the gathering…
Two pigeons managed to arc two power lines in the valley below the house which resulted in a loud noise and a cloud of smoke and feathers.
It was amazing how fast the fire spread up the valley and impressive how quickly the local fire departments and Los Padres crews knocked down the blaze.
(I was only using a 50mm lens which will give you some idea of how close i was to the action.)
