This was the experience that gave me a lifelong fear of birds and pigeons in particular! Feeding pigeons in Trafalgar Square, London. That's my mum with a pigeon on her hand and me trying to become invisible so that the birds didn't flap at me.

ReplyDeleteAAAArrggg!!!! I am terrified of birds. A bird got caught in my hair when I was small. I like listening to them and watching from a distance but I couldn´t touch one.
