Another sad Pigeon Story; this one from England
Post-mortem tests carried out by a government laboratory show pigeons in Trafalgar Square are starving to death, according to a campaign group.
The Veterinary Laboratories Agency examined five corpses and found them to be in "poor bodily condition" and the "gizzard of all birds was empty".
Pigeon Action Group (PAG) says a ban on feeding the birds, introduced by mayor Ken Livingstone in 2003, is to blame.
The mayor's office said measures to reduce pigeon numbers were humane.
The whole story continues stating it's an Agonising death.
