Pigeon market Malang

Scenes from the bird market in Malang, Indonesia. Pigeon fans are testing the abilities and the willingness of the male to fly back to the female. At clear weather they gather by the neighborhood hills and the pigeon owners stays in the lower slopes with the females. 7 000 Rp (less than 1 USD) are paid to some small boys, to climb up the peak with the male pigeons, which are released upon a preestablished signal. The winner is the owner of the fastest pigeon. As gambling is frawned upon in muslim Java (opposite to hindu Bali, where small children are encouraged to gamble by their parents), the only gain of the winner is raising the market value of his pigeons. Good pigeons are worth more than 2 million Rp (200 USD).
