    Pigeons are thick...

    Flying at full speed and wind assisted, the fricking thing has just flown in to my bedroom window. I now have a nice dust imprint of a bird shape.

    I wouldnt mind, but it didnt even seem to dazed, it managed to change direction after hitting the window and fly off.

    Scared the tulip out of me and the cat!
    I didn't say it was your ******* fault, I said I was blaming you!

    Can you see a little catapult in your garden?
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

        It can be a bit annoying when their pavement anti-collision stratagem involves walking directly in your path. They come from the side and when they detect an imminent collision (often erroneously), they walk ahead of you, only to detect another imminent collision and then fly off.

        Perhaps it's related to other flight animals who will do the same thing with cars and trains and often come off the worse for it.

            I hit a pigeon driving to work a while back. It was still dark. I saw a bird whoosh in front of my windscreen, but his wingmans (pardon the pun) flight-path intersected with my windscreen pillar.

            I suppose the little rat was dead before it hit the floor. I was doing 70.
