‘COO! What a scorcher, says the pigeon sitting atop Nelsons Column.

Indeed, it is hot. And from its vantage point high above Trafalgar Square, the flying rat is warmed by the sun above and from lunch within, as its daily diet of junk food is turned from the revolting mush that litters the pavement to a revolting mush that litters Nelsons head.
According to Keep Britain Tidys Alan Woods, the groups chief executive, seven out of ten bits of litter on the pavement are food related.
As the Mail says, its even worse in the summer when the weather encourages people to eat outside and the pigeon breeding season is at its peak.
Woods says the mess is unfair on councils and positively cruel to the pigeons, which are tempted to eat our droppings.
But it cant be that bad. Fast food hasnt done the average obese Briton any harm.
In fact, feeding pigeons junk food may complete the food cycle of the urban food chain.
If you were to trap an urban pigeon and slice it open, youd discover right before youre shot by animal lovers that it comes pre-stuffed with chips and curry sauce, its insides coated in a dusting of five secret herbs and spices.
Its like a kebab with wings. And every bit as delicious…’
