Pigeon Facts GameI just figured it might be fun to play a game with the facts we know about pigeons so that everyone can learn them. So I will start it and see if you all like the game or not, hey its worth a try.
So this is how it goes we have a question a day about pigeons and then you just post what you think the answer is, the person that gets it right has to post the next day with their fun fact. If no one gets it right that day(or if more than one person gets it right) then the person who posted that day does another one until someone gets it right or as a tie breaker. Ok anyone interested? Question Number One: How many taste buds does a pigeon have? I will post the answer in 24 hours Happy Fact Hunting ![]()

How can feathers be heavier than bones evn if they are hollow? Hmm I am going to have to say bones are heavier, well I have a 50/50 shot of being right.
