But spare a thought for the poor old pigeons (and other variety of livestock).....think of the moment of sheer terror they go through.

I wonder what was the last thing that went through their minds before their tragic deaths?

Their bum, perhaps?

It wasn't a pigeon, That was a Moose. They can be discribed at best as very large cow, with very long legs, big ears, and a flap under there chin. There just about as smart as cow as well. A bull in rutting season will charge anything in sight. That includes trains. Moose-0 VIA RAIL-1.

Shame about the bird of prey, they are amazing animals, and I have the utmost respect for them. Flying rats however, are another matter. Bumped two of them and a badger off this morning on the school bus. Also mowed down some cows outside of Shrewsbury with a 158 once.
