We seem to have a Pigeon or some bird stuck in the chimney of our rental. It's got a fitted electric fire so no access up the chimney. Who's responsible to get this removed myself or the Landlord?

As much as we all hate pigeons, its still a bit harsh letting something starve to death.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Would you be so concerned if it was a rat that died there? Pigeons are as much vermin as they are.0 -
A few weeks ago my work colleagues and I noticed a pigeon stuck in a tree outside our office.
We weren't sure at first whether it was alive, and whether what looked like the occasional fluttering of its wings was caused by the wind, but eventually we concluded that the poor thing WAS alive and attached to a branch by a piece of wire or cable round one wing.
I called the RSPCA and was very impressed by the dedication of the inspector to rescuing a creature which some people might regard as vermin; although in the end, because of the height of the tree, the thickness of branches preventing the fire service getting a ladder to it and the difficulty of vehicle access for a specialist rescue appliance it couldn't be saved.
A call to the RSPCA, if its not too late, might just reap dividends for the poor bird in your case.0
