It occurred to me that they might have had some purpose in mind, but looking at the map the only thing apparently in their sights is the Institute of Contemporary Arts.
And that's closed for the duration of the current brouhaha. :) |

They're reenactors. That's their version of the Beatles crossing Abbey Road.
They're just pelicans, it's the best they can do. |
Yeh, just you wait until they start eating pigeons like they do in the parks in California (Which You Tube videos you can look at):eek:

It occurred to me that some non-Brits may not know that one type of pedestrian crossing in the UK is called a Pelican Crossing
...and TIL is used to be spelled Pelicon, as it stands for PEdestrian LIght CONtrolled. |

I remember wondering what type of bird (or animal) a belisha was because we had pelican crossings and zebra crossings and some crossings had belisha beacons (which I imagined as "Beak-on")
