    I love pigeons so he’d be living the dream if I was around. I have so many pictures of pigeons saved on my phone

    This was the silly little fella I met on Friday:

        These are all gorgeous! Are they domestic or feral? They don’t fit the most common pigeon coloration I see in feral pigeons in the US, but I definitely have seen some feral pigeons with extremely unique coloration and it’s always so cool. (Though every single pigeon, no matter how “common,” is beautiful in my eyes. Unironically, they are one of my favorite birds.) Also, you might be from the UK or something, and I don’t know much about the state of pigeons there, or if you have any truly wild pigeons vs. feral ones.

    Pffft.

    If that’s a New York pigeon than its wildest dream is grabbing a slice of pizza away from a rat.

    I don’t know who needs to hear this, but pigeons are domesticated and free you can just take them. It’s the same as taking home a stray cat.
