Don't feed the birds!
Patrick enjoys himself playing around with one of those greedy black birds flying around in the Alps, mostly in the neighbourhood of huts.
This particular specimen followed us to the top of the Tour Ronde (3792m.) and did not fly up so high for nothing...
In the background, from left to right the Mont Blanc de Courmayeur, and the Mont Blanc. In the center is one of the 6 Virgin statues that can be found in the Mont Blanc Range. Unfortunately the summit log was not present at the moment but we will always keep the memory of a splendid moment in our lives.
Scanned from color slide. Shot with my Minolta Dynax 404si (28-80), Fuji 100asa positive film.
