People of Paris #12 features Pigeon Man, also known as the Pigeon Whisperer. It appears as though the gentleman is not thrilled with his role in life and may be thinking that this is one crappy job.

Hungry? Try some chicken gizzards and Noirmoutier potatoes, the “Rolls Royce” of potatoes, named for the French region it is grown. There’s no doubt as to who is in charge of this business found in the Paris Farmers’ Market.
