When you think "pigeon", you don't necessarily think of a unique and beautiful bird. Pigeons are common and dirty, not even close to being labeled as "beautiful". However, the Victoria Crowned Pigeon is the beautiful love-child of a pigeon and a peacock. No, not really. Just really looks that way!
With bright blue feathers and a feathered crown on top of it's head, it's totally mesmerizing! Plus, these birds could become as large as a turkey!
If we had to choose, we'd say the Victoria Crowned Pigeon is our favorite "pigeon".

Al Larson is a 97-year-old birdwatcher from Idaho who has built and placed more than 350 wooden nest boxes throughout the state's southwest. He started the project in the late 1970s after reading how important the shelters are to the survival of bluebirds. Today, at the age of 97, he is still at it. Larson monitors the little houses to record vital data about the number of eggs and nestlings. To date, Larson has helped fledge over 40,000 bluebirds.
These birds have their own set of rules and it's not always similar to human rules. Here are some birds being jerks.

Move aside, Peacocks! There's a new stylish and colorful bird in town -- chicken in tutus! From little chicks in cupcake liners to full-grown chickens in rainbow tutus, we can't stop gushing over how adorable these chicks look!
OK, but why do they look so normal? We had to look at actually bird pictures after these because they messed us up so bad.

In 2018, the Kiwi bird, native to New Zealand, officially moved from the endangered list to "vulnerable." They are incredibly elusive and difficult to capture on film but we gathered a few short gifs, just for you!
Fun fact about the Kiwi bird, they lay really, really big eggs. We're talking huge, in comparison to the adult Kiwi. And their eggs can weigh up to 1 quarter of an adult kiwi bird's mass! Pretty wild!
Barely English, but understandable because it's written by a bird who fights anti-bird sentiments and is running for president. Shout out for her funny twitter page.
