Day 27 - A Photo (Or Photos) That Tells A Story


Grosvenor Square, London, England
March, 2002
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Well, it’s not every day that you find rats with wings publically copulating at your feet, is it?

And while sinfulslasher may not prompt me for Pigeon!Peter and Pigeon!Neal, I might just add this to my list of stories to write...

Of course, you would be the one to find pigeons having sex in public. Why am I not surprised?

I would like to point out that A) you already wrote pigeon!AU (sorta) and B) I've been rooting for squirrels all along. ;P

(Any and all stories written by you are happily hugged and devoured though. Even if it's a pigeon AU. *g*)

I was sitting on a park bench in Grosvenor Square, minding my own business and there they were, having sex in public. At my feet.

As for the Pigeon AU - I wrote that AFTER I prepped this picture for posting, SO THERE!

[sinfulslasher]

Of course you were completely innocent. And, because you're not voyeuristic at all, you totally also didn't look. And watched. And took pictures. Oh wait.

Don't let me stop you from writing your silly pigeon!AU. But I still expect squirrel smexitiems! SO THERE.

To be honest (and I always am, you know), as an impressionable teenager, I read an article in Vanity Fair about some bizarre English art collector (a peer of the realm) who used to dye pigeons and photograph them. There was a quotation in that article that never left me:

"The wet ones get more sex.

So, sue me for being such a kinky freak. This is what happens when 14 year olds read things that they probably shouldn't!

[sinfulslasher]

OMG I NOW NEED A FIC BASED ON THIS!!!

Make it happen. Now!

(Neal is the bizarre artist doing this, and Peter is a collector who is being told about the wet ones. Then he gets wet to see if this only counts for pigeons or also for humans. Because Neal. I mean, come on.)

ROTFL!!!!

:D:D:D:D

Now I kind of want a H/D Animagus story about pigeons and sex, and maybe even a little non-con thrown in.

Doin' it in Trafalgar Square. Those exhibitionist British wizard pigeons. You can't take them anywhere.

I once saw two moths having sex on the frame of my kitchen door. I killed them. Later I regretted that I did not take a picure first. I mean, seriously?

[elrhiarhodan]

Were they like these giant hawk moths (each one was as big a my hand).

[dieastra.livejournal.com]

LOL it seems, in America everything is a bit bigger, even the moths ;)

In Germany, they look like this and are as big as my thumb nail I'd say:

There was that one time at the family day open house at the Honolulu zoo when the land tortoises were getting together. One could hear the male roar/grunt with each thrust across the zoo. Interesting the exhibit was most popular with the adults, the kids could care less. No camera that day.

HAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So of course you had to take a photo!

There are so very many pigeons in London, it's rather surprising that I never saw any copulating.

And now I'm remembering a sign I saw in the King's Cross train station: "If you must feed the birds, buy a budgie." It still makes me chuckle.

[elrhiarhodan]

I think I saw that sign too.

I remember reading one awful statistic about when Nelson's Column was cleaned in the early 1990's - that they removed literally TONS (or is that TONNES) of dead pigeons from the actual base of the statue at the top of the pillar.
