Sometimes Pigeons Fail Too

People often ask why you never see baby pigeons. I myself have seen baby pigeons, they're fat ugly creatures and you're lucky if you've never seen one. They tend to stay in their nest until they're grown up because they are lazy. One thing I have never seen is the accidental death of a pigeon. So often they sit in the road tempting fate but they always seem to escape unharmed. When I'm stood on the train platform watching the pigeons strut around on the tracks as a train approaches, I'm sure I'm not the only one anticipating some hardcore wheels-on-pigeon action, alas we're always disappointed. So imagine how left out I felt when I got to the station one morning to find a pigeon that failed, and I wasn't even there to see it...
