Kalamata & Puttanesca

The Animal Control officers who found Kalamata and Puttanesca in Racine deserve full credit for the correct identification, because Kalamata and Puttanesca, huddled together on the ground, do present a certain owlish gravitas that could give a person pause. They are German Owl Pigeons — a centuries-old fancy breed named for that distinctive round head and wide-eyed expression that makes them look permanently contemplative. They are not wild owls. They are absolutely certain that they belong indoors only, and the animal control team members who recognized this and got them to safety were entirely right. German Owl Pigeons are fully domesticated birds, not equipped for outdoor survival, which makes finding two of them huddled together outside alarming and cause for immediate rescue.<br/>Their personality became clear almost immediately during their photo shoot, when Kalamata and Puttanesca encountered cherry blossom branches and began, without any prompting or direction, constructing a nest. They assessed the available materials, conferred, and got to work. They are a couple with a shared vision for their living space, and they would like to be involved in all the decisions going forward. Kalamata and Puttanesca are also round, fluffy, richly patterned in deep chocolate and white, and participate in a photo shoot like they’ve done this before. The little pink umbrella in the corner of the photos was, one suspects, their idea.<br/>Kalamata and Puttanesca are awaiting a home that can appreciate two birds with strong aesthetic preferences, genuine domestic ambitions, and a particular charm they have refined to be exactly this cute and exactly this opinionated about interior design.
