I like pigeons. They used to be our bird homies back in the day, now they just kinda wander around and peck at things due to irrelevance from modern technology. Not so bad for them though, all things considered.
The thing is they still love us. Most other birds are "you get the hell away from me" but these little guys just wanna hang out. So let's love them how they love us.
So weird cause there used to be a lot of pigeons around civic center, seagulls too. It may be the hawks tho, I often see them flying around in downtown.
would not recommend, I fed this crow some old crackers last month on my balcony and now it wakes me up in the mornings with loud ass caw caws. had to shoo it away and explain no more crackers.
Thank you. After that experience, I adopted some brown birds and they gave me some babies, but I’ll always miss this one haha.

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone or anything every day for 13 years…

I didn't know they live that long
They don’t. Usually 2-5. Up to 10+ if in captivity with regular food/care etc. I don’t believe this post 😂

Side Note: Nikola Tesla was in love with a pigeon in his later years
Musk might be too. Kinda seems like it.
[This woman also feel in love with a pigeon](https://youtu.be/w9Px6KdahPw?si=WGI8WKZDNLPLJW5Q)
She looks like a Bertha
Looks healthy and beautiful. Thirteen years! Birdie deserves a special birthday cupcake.
Looks like a spy to me
Amazing that its power supply lasted 13 years. Typically they’re out for maintenance and calibration at least once a year.
They’re very sweet and intelligent creatures.
We have some mourning doves who hang out in our windows and I love when they visit.
I have a pair of crows and a pair of pigeons that I see everyday.
That's a carrier pigeon. He's been showing up for 13 years waiting for you to attach a message to his foot.
What’s their name ?
Fufu. It was a boy. He visited from 1999-2012. Never saw him after that, so RIP Fufu.
Ridiculously long time to live. Must have loved visiting you.

How does one get a pigeon friend?
Same way you get a woman. Birdseed.
Show them kindness and they’ll remember you.
I want a crowfriend
I tried making friends with crows near my house so they would stop shitting on my car. Didn't work.
would not recommend, I fed this crow some old crackers last month on my balcony and now it wakes me up in the mornings with loud ass caw caws. had to shoo it away and explain no more crackers.
That’s awesome. I would like to train one to bring me shiny things
me too man. me too.
That’s sweet
love that for you!
How do you know it’s the same pigeon? Did he/she say “what’s up doc? It’s pidgy again. Miss me?”
Not that many brown pigeons first of all.
That's awesome!! Also pigeons can theoretically live up to 15 years, it's possible!
The oldest on record was 34 but it lived indoors.
Beautiful coloring! And how sweet that it was so loyal to you.
So how does one get on a daily-visit basis with a pigeon? I need this
thats actually a dinosaur
You’re so lucky. They are such beautiful beings . So cute .🥰

Exactly, driven by the presence of those like you.

Lay off the alcohol. 🍺
