No that's definitely a baby pidgeon. Ducklings are much cuter.Gers said:greensalad said:

Love the baby pigeons! I don't care if feral pigeons are flying rats. I think a species (Rock Dove) that can adapt so well to living in an urban environment deserves applause rather than censure.

Lovely house. Is it a B&B though? Bit confused by the "Polite Notice" on the mantel in the kitchen which (I think) reads:Starbrite said:If the dog comes with the property I'm buying it!(Was looking at what to spend tonight's lotto win on, Like I could afford the house in the first instance)
"All [...] are politely requested to leave the ground floor at 7:30pm sharp."
Seems a bit cruel to make your family leave their own kitchen at 7:30! Haha, but it doesn't look to be set up as a B&B?
Edit: re-read it, the mystery word is "children". All children to leave the ground floor at 7:30pm sharp. Passive aggressive much?!1 -

That's a scream alright. Interesting place to keep one's bicycle when there are all those outbuildings available and what, precisely, is the subject of pic 15 supposed to be? A rustic grotto or a barbeque arbour, the mind boggles.FreeBear said:0
