So, today I have noticed a pigeon in my garden. My garden isn't much of a garden, it's mostly pebbles and concrete.
However, I have noticed a pigeon which has spent most of today sitting in my garden. It's obviously a young pigeon. It is also obviously not mal-nutritioned as I have put out a bowl of water and I've put out a bowl of wild bird seed. It has ignored both of these.
It occasionally flies away.

"Could it be one of the racing pigeons that went missing  "
That's what I at first thought. It's why I went mental about putting out water, food and providing rest. However, the fucker refused my mixed nut offerings, refused to peck at the huge bowl of water I put out, keeps flying off and coming back, and has even refused to eat any of the £1 Wild Bird Seed that I bought from Tesco. |

How inconsiderate of it  sounds like a privileged pigeon  |

"Probably a police surveillance drone in disguise..."
They don't need that. They just drive past my house each day and check out whether my car has moved. |

If its a racing pigeon. It'll have rings on it's leg, one of those will have a mobile number on it so you can contact its owner. They're usually really tame as they're used to being handled.
No rings? Wild pigeon. |

It's definitely got no rings on it's legs. And it also has the "bumfluff" feathery stuff which suggests it's one of this years newborns.
Not tame either, I can get close enough to put out a bowl of water and saucer of wild bird food, but if I get too close it wanders away. |

"rats of the sky
That's seagulls...."
I live close to Llandudno and can confirm that seagulls will steal a KFC mini fillet burger if they get the chance.  |

"Shoot it and make pie?"
My refrigerator is filled with enough lard, plain four, chicken breast and water to ensure I can make a pie without having to shoot a poor, defenceless pigeon. I also have a rolling pin and I know how to use it........
LOL  |
