Overview

Thoroughly enjoyable documentary about London pigeons, showing them nesting in unlikely places such as the stone doorways of Georgian shop fronts in Charlotte Street and in bay trees on the balcony of a Marble Arch hotel. Shows numerous pigeons bobbing around, some eating β€œcorn from a horse’s nosebag”, others fluttering around Trafalgar Square, St Paul’s and Piccadilly.
