    Fun fact:

    Most pigeons are the feral descendants of a cross-bred & domesticated non-native bird known as the rock-dove. They were called this because these doves would lay their eggs on cliff faces directly onto the exposed rock with just enough twigs and debris to ensure the eggs wouldn’t roll off the edge.

    We domesticated them for 4000 years and decided they were gross and stupid when we invented the telephone. Poor babes are just doing their best ☹️
