What do pigeons say?

I think they say "my feet hurt Sally" rather than my work colleague who thinks they say "I don't want to know". Am I unreasonable? Do they say something different to you?

They say ‘my toe hurts Betty’ Grin

@examstress2021 and @SmidgenofaPigeon brilliant! They both work, I like them.

Woodpigeons have a shorter call too don't they-

Always sounds like they are mournfully saying ‘you bastard, you bastard’

Budapestdreams · 03/07/2021 17:41

Haha, I'll have to listen out for them!

I have sat and watched pigeons in the park and there always seem to be one bullying the other.
I think they are being told to stay in line by the leader pigeon.

Similar to @SmidgenofaPigeon but ‘you can’t fly, Judy’

DynamoKev · 03/07/2021 17:46

Don’t forget collared doves.

Take two sheep, Daddy

Frownette · 03/07/2021 17:47

"No I will not get out of the way of your feet"

HermioneGrunger · 03/07/2021 17:48

I'm sure one of them here is constantly saying "get off me you sex pest, I don't want to kiss you let alone anything more".

The sex pest is persistent though so I think the pigeon then mutters under their breath "I hope you end up in a pie today".

Whaleandsnail6 · 03/07/2021 17:48

Ours have always said Take two sheep paddy.

Wood pigeons…..”fuck off you, fuck off you”.
At least that’s what I shout in reply to the local pair. Noisy fuckers.

vampirethriller · 03/07/2021 17:51

My toe bleeds Betty.

LFQuery · 03/07/2021 17:54

I suspect most of our local pigeons say “chase me and try to kill me” to my dogs.

LunaNorth · 03/07/2021 17:57

Me toe hurts, Betty.

OpalOwl · 03/07/2021 17:58

My toe is bleeding

Babygotblueyes · 03/07/2021 18:02

My toe bleeds, Betty.

DynamoKev · 03/07/2021 18:02
