The Pest I’ll Never Forget: The Relentless Pigeon Who Stared and Stared and Ruined My Spring
A living room encounter with a toast-loving pigeon proved a big mistake. It led to weeks of drawn curtains and crawling around on the floor to avoid its eerie and unerring gaze
TL;DR
- An 11-year-old boy befriended a pigeon by feeding it toast through an open window.
- The pigeon began to enter the house and stare unnervingly at the boy.
- The persistent pigeon's presence caused the boy and his sister to hide for two weeks, drawing curtains and crawling to avoid its gaze.
- The situation resolved itself when the pigeon eventually stopped appearing.
- Years later, a similar encounter with another pigeon prompted the now-older individual to shut their eyes and wait for it to leave.
