Pigeons are my favourite bird, of all the birds. I love their coo-ing sound they make, and how derpy they look.
Plus, Australia has a bunch of native ones. My favourite is the Crested Pigeon - they have little mohawks and squeak when they take off.
Look at these beautiful pigeons! https://www.australiaswonderfulbirds.com.au/pigeons
Look at the superb fruit dove and see the beauty of pigeons lol
I will never forgive the pigeon that stole my whopper junior (with cheese) at fed square at 3am many moons ago. I wasn't in the best state so it wasn't a fair fight.
The resident magpie down here takes them out for sport which I fully support.
I love the crested ones, aka Punk Pigeons. So squeaky!
SQUEE squee squee ^squee squee squee^
crested pigeons have taken up nest at the Carlton Gardens , they love the areas with gum trees best
Wow, I didn't realise we had so many pigeons, and pretty ones too!
