i am very nearly in tears
just walked past what i thought was a plastic bag but on stupid second glance (why? why??) turned out to be a pigeon that had fallen or been kicked and was feebly flapping one wing and struggling trying to get up. i really hate seeing things suffer like that but i am far too wet to do anything about it. so my day needs to get a lot better, please. now would be good.

if I was there I'd unleash my moggy on it.
he kills things very quickly.
as it is I'm in Aus and my kitty is curled up on my bed, so I'm sorry.

When I was a boy
I once saw a pigeon being MURDERED by a bird of prey, one day after school, just outside my house. The pigeon was trying to hide under a car but to no avail. It was rather traumatic to me, being a sensitive, artistic soul.

I was once in the garage
when I heard a massive THUD on the side. Peeking out the window I saw a bird of prey happily tucking in to a pigeon. There were feathers everywhere for weeks.

Top Tip: Mowing over the feathers will not make them go away but will result in feather confetti everywhere

Ah, there's a story from my old school, home of mentals
concerning a pigeon. I probably would mentally scar you if I told it to you again :P

As opposed to physically scarring me
Your usual modus operandum.
