A man feeds pigeons and fish from a sandbag barrier as floods advance into central Bangkok October 27, 2011. Thailand's prime minister said Bangkok was fighting the forces of nature on Thursday as floodwater threatened to break through dikes protecting the capital and residents took to the road after the government told them to leave if they could.
