参加阅兵的鸽子都是“借”的？北京市民：鸽子已到家

摘要：China concluded its V-Day commemorations on Wednesday, with 80,000 doves and 80,000 balloons released into the sky over Tian'anmen

9月3日上午，阅兵活动结束后，《歌唱祖国》响彻天安门广场上空，全场热血沸腾。鸽笼开启，8万羽和平鸽展翅高飞，礼赞和平；8万只气球腾空而起，色彩缤纷。

China concluded its V-Day commemorations on Wednesday, with 80,000 doves and 80,000 balloons released into the sky over Tian'anmen Square in central Beijing.

北京市信鸽协会秘书长孙鹏介绍，这8万羽身体健康、体质强健的和平鸽全部来自北京市的信鸽协会会员，9月2日下午开始，信鸽会员带着和平鸽分别从东城、西城、丰台、房山等10个区出发，到各区收鸽地点集结交鸽。区信鸽协会逐羽检查，并将所有和平鸽集中安置在12辆放飞车中。

All doves were provided by members of the Beijing Racing Pigeon Association, said Sun Peng, secretary-general of the association. District pigeon associations conducted individual inspections of each bird before all doves were centrally housed in 12 release vehicles.

经过一夜的等待，迎来了它们的放飞时刻。

和平鸽笼车有很多贴心的设计，例如水槽、通风机等，放飞员还会适时为和平鸽补充水分，确保它们保持良好状态。

鸽笼车的摆放也有讲究，“和平鸽在飞行中遇到障碍物会调头，利用这个特点，和平鸽可以在广场上空形成盘旋状态。”孙鹏举例，如果鸽笼车搭载的是来自通州的和平鸽，那么这辆车就会被放在广场西侧，当和平鸽出笼朝东飞的时候，遇到朝西飞的和平鸽就会调头，所有和平鸽就会在空中形成盘旋效果。

The arrangement of the release vehicles also took into account the birds' behavioral traits. "When doves encounter obstacles during flight, they tend to turn around. This characteristic helps them form circling patterns over Tian'anmen Square," Sun said. When doves released eastward meet those flying westward, they change direction, creating a swirling effect in the sky.
