法国巴黎西部南戴尔拉德芳斯大学从事此项研究的研究员达莉拉•博韦说：“很可能这些鸽子能够认出研究人员的脸。”

Dr Dalila Bovet , a co-author of the study from the University of Paris Ouest Nanterre La D é fense , said : " It is very likely that the pigeons recognized the researchers by their faces . "

他们说，过去几十年，这座城市成功地把写字楼排除在市区范围之外，集中在西侧的拉德芳斯等地区，那里现在是玻璃钢筋的森林。

For the last few decades , they say , the city has done very nicely by keeping office towers outside the city limits in areas like La D é fense , on its western edge , now a forest of glass and steel .
