Image description

A total of 1,999 carrier pigeons are released in front of Macau's landmark Ruins of St. Paul at 9:09am on September 9 as part of its handover events to symbolise the return to the motherland. Ninty-five percent of the pigeons were expected to fly to Guangzhou in southern China, 140km away. The Portuguese-run gambling enclave reverts to China at midnight on December 19, after more than 400 years of Portuguese rule.
