pigeon

What's a Captain Pigeon Pants without a pigeon skin! When most people think of a pigeon, they usually mean a Rock dove also known as Common pigeons, Rock pigeons, Domestic pigeons, City doves, or my favourite... Feral Pigeons.

And yes, pigeons and doves are the same thing. It really just depends on what you decide to call them.

While many see pigeons as pests, usually because of their droppings, pigeons have actually contributed a lot to humanity. They are the oldest domesticated bird, with historical records of domestication dating back to Ancient Mesopotamia. With their incredible homing abilities, some pigeons have even saved lives and are now honoured war heroes. Perhaps man's best friend is not the dog, but the pigeon.
