I loathe pigeons. You wouldn't believe what they do to my downpipe | Adrian Chiles
Briefly

The article humorously highlights the pervasive presence of pigeons in urban environments, emphasizing their annoying habits and the chaos they bring. The author describes experiences of dealing with pigeon waste and filth, illustrating the daily nuisance they create atop his house. Nostalgically reflecting on childhood memories with pigeons, the author questions cultural standards of entertainment, juxtaposing past joys with present grievances, and expressing a strong dislike for the birds through vivid descriptions and rhetorical questions.
The din of pigeons becomes an unbearable soundtrack to my life, reminding me daily of the filth they proliferate, insisting that their presence is both intrusive and nonsensical.
I can recognize a bloody pigeon easily, but the presence of their filth and the chaos they cause make me question why we find them tolerable in urban life.
