Description
Originating from Europe, german Nun pigeon stands distinguished with a monastic 'hood' surrounding its head, reminiscent of German nuns' apparels. Exhibiting a striking contrast of colors, the bird's body boasts an enamel-white plumage, while its hood, wing shields, and tail reflect a dense pitch-black. Existing in the symbiosis of form and function, the german Nun pigeon's short, sturdy beak is exemplary of its hardiness.
