Can't get rid of the pigeons. Do you like them?

Well, yes, they are waking me up around 6 in the morning almost every day, walking on the roof above me, making their sounds and on my window bench leaving me their presents. No that pigeon mafia is unstoppable and if i start cleaning my windows, which are not that dirty, they'll come fast and ruin it all. I'll wait for some time. I don't hate them but they are pests that you can't get rid of and i don't support people feeding them with bread, which they can't eat and that same bread stays on the ground. Birds are fed by seeds but some people just don't get it. I also heard and saw my friends, crows. I hope they could do something about them, I'll be waiting.

At some places in Europe we saw spikes and netting to try to stop them fouling the buildings.

Pigeons wake you up? You must be a light sleeper.

I live in the city- buildings are everywhere. I seldom see pigeons where I am staying.

Pigeons are pesky, dirty birds. Fortunately we don't have any out here in the country.

I like watching pigeons from a distance I can understand if you would start hating them. Cleaning their mess is indeed one hell of a job!
