That One Pigeon

Once the kids tried to ‘play’ with the birds. Obviously they all flew away in terror, all but one – the white pigeon. It stood its ground as if it was a hawk and stared at the children till they backed away crying. It spread its wings triumphantly as it watched the kids run away with tears in their eyes, it knew that it had won that battle. Normally I wouldn’t actually go into the park but on that day I did. I wanted to congratulate the bird, tell it how impressed I was. As I neared though it flew away.
