Loads of them in my local area (and the UK in general) they're such a delight to watch :)

Aww, lucky! They look like cool birds ;o;

They're very visible and entertaining getting up to antics, whether they're courting, fighting, mating or doing their display flight where they swoop up, give a couple of wing-claps on the apex and then swoosh down gracefully. They're also uncommonly easy to spot when roosting at night thanks to their size and lightly-coloured undersides.

Despite their size I've only really seen them be aggressive towards others of their kind. They often have little fights that revolve around fluttering at each other and harmless wing slaps (that make an impressive crack sound).

Ugh, they sound so adorable. Those kinda fights, ahhhhh. Why must birds be so perfect in their INTENSE BATTLES.

I love these guys; especially when they try and fit their fat floof into our regular bird table.

I think they and the regular pigeons are responsible for regular feather explosions at some times of year.

They also taste really good, too.

Serve me some pigeon.

Gimme.

I really get offended when they add "Common" before the animals name. It's like "Don't mind them. They are bland and... common".
THEY ARE INDIVIDUALS YOU PIGS.
