A pigeon is a kind of bird that you often see fluttering around in parks or cities. Have you ever wondered where pigeons come from? These birds originally hailed from Europe, North Africa, and Asia before humans brought them to other parts of the world.

Pigeons are not just regular city birds; they have an amazing ability which has been used by humans for thousands of years. They have an uncanny talent for finding their way back home, even if they’re hundreds of miles away! Before telephones or emails, people used pigeons to deliver messages across long distances.

Pigeons are also known for their unique way of eating. Unlike other birds who have to tilt their heads back to swallow water, pigeons can dunk their beaks into a puddle and drink without lifting their heads.

Did you know that pigeons can recognize their reflection in a mirror? They are among the few animals who can do this. Lastly, pigeons come in multiple colors – from white, gray, to bluish-gray with two black bands on their wings. Aren’t pigeons more interesting than you thought?
