A pair of sparrows approach the tables of some tourists, pecking at small birds. In the same square in the center of Palma, a group of pigeons pecks among the cracks in the pavement, and a turtledove hides among the leaves of a large ficus tree. The scene is so commonplace that it becomes invisible. The widespread idea is that the city drives away wildlife. But one only needs to stop for a few minutes to realize that the urban environment is full of birds, many more than are obvious. They don't disappear. They transform.
