November 9, 2008: Pigeon Print

Quote:

After something crashed into Diana Matthews' conservatory window, it didn't take a genius to work out what it had been. Leaving a perfect bird-shaped imprint on the glass, it was clear that a clumsy pigeon had lost its way. Mrs Matthews, who lives in Bedworth, Warwickshire, noticed the imprint on the window in the morning sunshine.

'It was so detailed it was almost like an engraving,' she said.
'It was almost as if it had been dusted in talcum powder before it hit.'
She was so impressed by the imprint which the bird left behind that she took this picture.
She added: 'There was just one single feather left outside, but no evidence of the bird.'

Gas Mark 5, 60 minutes, then Gas Mark 7 for 20.

it's too bad that pigeons have become demonized as flying rats. They're really pretty.

The house has right-of-way, since it is much less maneuverable than the selfish, T-boning pigeon.

Hey...maybe it was just the pigeon's way of leaving its mark? Y'know... "Pigeon was here." :rolleyes:

At least now we know why Jesus keeps appearing in so many places. He keeps slamming his face into toast, Doritos and walls.

No no no. You're confusing them with Rock Doves.

The pigeon was making a glass of itself. Naw, it's hard to joke about because a kingfisher flew into our window yesterday and sat, stunned, for a long time. I'm happy to report he lived.

What? Nine posts and no one has mentioned squab or cornish game hen "on the glass"?

Well there was only the imprint, and one feather, to be found in the morning. That's not very nutritious.

Maybe the pigeon escaped?... maybe a denizen lurking in the night got 'em? Only the Shadow knows. :skull:

The only clear part of the image is the bill and it is NOT a pigeon bill.

Oh, and that pigeon was lucky! Or unlucky, depending on your personal preferences.
