Always had a soft spot for my chooks ; friendly , interesting and of course , providers of wonderful fresh eggs . However , while free ranging near the house their
toilet habits were unmannerly . Geese are worse . In fact I had grown used to an assumption that all birds had no concern about where they made a mess . Pigeons are famous for their irreverent treatment of statues and reviled for fouling buildings so I had presumed that they were like all other birds . Did a tour of Europe , the UK , and Canada recently and saw a lot of pigeons foraging in cities and it suddenly occured to me that not one pigeon was adding to the mess on the pavement . Pigeons may consider any roosting area as a
toilet but the pavement is the dinner table and is treated as such ! Please correct me if I am wrong .

Did you know that Pigeons are the closest relatives to Parrots?

Willem when we have been around the Block, I reckon we will have earned the right to take them off lol, we are just itching to get a bit
of red dust on them, had plenty of beach sand on them.
The count down has begun, just takeing short trips away, teaching
the
Cook how to tow it just in case I break a leg or some thing.

Yep go out into the bush and you'll find heaps of evidence for the existence of crossbred human/pigeons. They bleep all over the place, are probably infested with vermin and generally gather in large numbers close proximity to campers, generally making a total nusiance of themselves. Absolutely feral. Must be Collingwood supporters !!
