There’s finally a reason for me to visit New York. Because I have never, ever seen a London pigeon using the Tube to get around the British capital. They’re obviously braver in the United States.
This pigeon is seen standing in the middle of a subway carriage, patiently waiting for his stop. He starts moving as soon as the stop is announced, and then moves toward the door as the train slows. He then casually hops out and walks off.
There’s something inherently funny about this video. It immediately tickles your funny bone to see something highly unlikely and wholly unexpected taking place before your very eyes.
If I’d have actually been on that subway train I think I’d have had to follow the bird to see where he went and what he did next. He probably reverted to flying or hopping about a bit, but you never know, maybe he was indeed on his way to work or late for a meeting.
