Heist Coo - Part 2 - Cliff

In the vibrant city of Aviaro, where pigeons are esteemed in both the show circuit and the secretive underworld of heists, Cliff, the sophisticated English Carrier Pigeon, plays a pivotal role in a daring crew of expert avian thieves.

Cliff was the linchpin of the Heist Coo crew, his adeptness in communication and coordination unmatched. He managed the crew's intricate network of messengers and information exchange, ensuring flawless synchronization during their daring heists.

Tumbles, the nimble tumbler pigeon, swiftly infiltrated secured locations, navigating with unparalleled agility. Stan, the formidable Pouter Pigeon, stood as the crew's guardian, ready to step in and remove any obstacles during the missions. Fannie, the captivating fantail show pigeon, mesmerized and diverted attention, using her stunning performances to create distractions essential for the crew's maneuvers.

Their next ambitious heist involved the renowned Aviaro Gallery, known for safeguarding an ancient artifact—an exquisite pigeon amulet rumored to possess mystical powers. It was the perfect target.

Cliff received intelligence from the local sparrow syndicate about the amulet's location within the gallery's heavily guarded central chamber. It was a test of their synchronization and stealth—the crew's expertise versus the gallery's state-of-the-art, human reliant, security system.

Under Cliff's meticulous direction, the crew embarked on their mission. Tumbles skillfully slipped into the gallery through a hidden and surprisingly large air intake, making his way towards the chamber where the amulet was housed. However, as Tumbles neared the chamber, the security systems unexpectedly heightened, automatic air vent closures engaged and he found himself trapped inside, unable to retreat the way he came.

Quick-thinking Cliff swiftly coordinated an increased diversion, relaying instructions to Fannie to intensify her performance outside the gallery and calling in a bevy of less glamorous, but highly synchronized back-up dancer pigeons, drawing the attention of the guards further outside the museum and away from Tumbles, to eye the spectacle.

As Fannie captured the attention of more and more onlookers with her stunning display, Stan positioned himself strategically, ready to intervene if necessary.

Inside the gallery, Tumbles, relying on Cliff's guidance, maneuvered through the labyrinthine security measures and avoiding the infrared motion detector beams with agility and precision. 

Cliff coordinated the perfect moment, relaying a signal to Stan, who, with a swift and decisive action, strutted intimidatingly towards the entrance, diverting the attention of the guards closest to the main entrance of the gallery, creating a window of opportunity for Tumbles.

Empowered by Cliff's expert guidance, Tumbles seized the moment, securing the pigeon-shaped amulet before slipping out unnoticed.

Their escape was flawless, a testament to Cliff's meticulous contingency planning and the crew's unwavering trust in his guidance. As they regrouped at their hideout, celebrating their success, they marveled at the culmination of their efforts and talked about their plans for the amulet.

Every winter

Every winter, we venture to a national wildlife refuge that is normally off limits but opens for one weekend. There we have seen kestrels on the hunt over the marshes. Great shirt, perfect for my wife!

Great mug for one of our very favorite birds, which is always first at our feeder. Good size and terrific graphic. My wife uses it daily.

Hello, my little chickadee dee dee dee

We adore bird in the wild and at our feeders. When we put up a new feeder, invariably the first to show up is a chickadee. While we are raptor devotees, we do have a soft spot for our little backyard friends. Great shirt and matching cup for my wife.
