how will these doves survive kuwait’s weather?
Its winter?
I feel bad for the workers who are going to clean up after all the poop and the water thats going to be wasted on cleaning poop stained windshields
Thats cool, the shooters will get something to practice at than live humans…
Wish they hadn’t caught these doves in the first place.
It won’t work, doves don’t fly here, they just walk around!
Thats the idea, they will ‘recycle’ them for all events this year. Usually these doves are domesticated and will take a small flight and return back, I am expecting 65% to be caught back by the owner/bengali who tamed them
haha, imagine if that was your main occupation.. Dove Tamer
of course…
release the doves here, sell the vaccinations there… very smart.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm 5000 doves flying around the sky… Give new meaning to the words SHIT STORM …
LOL
I saw a high judge (court judge) cleaning his BMW from that once … he was laughing… only car to get hit lol
*prepares his shozan*
A rival family should release 5000 falcons nearby the pigeon fest.
Not one unsarcastic comment?
I wish I could witness such an event. It’d be breathtaking <3
I just hope they aren’t colored like the Kuwaiti flag or anything, for ethical reasons.
Dove hunting season is on!!!!
A very bad idea. Who will clean all the dirt it will make after it’s released and grown in numbers? Go see Al-Murgab. Perhaps the Bangladeshis
it will be something more like this https://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=24397537&owner=ace117
Yeah, I think there are more people here who will appreciate the easy prey for hunting than the beauty of such a sight.
I smell a sh!t storm coming
50x20x5=5000 imagine it was the 1000th liberation day, that would be a shytstorm 3la gowletkum
And in the run up to this big event…where are the doves of peace and joy being kept?
To all the “shitstorm” comments… that’s why they’ll feed them glitter.
(Please tell me someone got the reference…=P)
I am going to watch and hope to take a few pics too. It is an exciting time in Kuwait there are so many events happening.
A little information, the weather is Kuwait in winter is pleasant enough, especially in February.
Over 280 species of birds choose Kuwait as a destination to winter in or to fly over during their winter migration.
There are thousands od flamingoes right now in Kuwait. The beaches are full of all kinds of gulls, cormorants and other kinds of birds.
As for who will clean up? There are cleaning crews employed for this reason. The birds that choose to fly over the beaches by their free will dirty it all the time but the humans with their rubbish dirty not just Kuwait but the whole world.
During the celebrations please at least try not to litter and try to keep the place clean.
