A FRIENDLY pigeon has been causing a stir in Vicars Cross.
The pigeon, who has been given the name of Perry, frequently tries to get into residents’ houses or land on the heads of those passing nearby.
Perry has begun to attract an online following on Facebook, with 125 people signing up to the Vicars Cross pigeon ‘fanpage’, where members can submit photos and videos of the pigeon’s unusual behaviour.
Helen Chester, who runs Tarvin Bridge Garage with Mark Purtill, said the pigeon often comes into their Tarvin Road business when it opens.
She said: “It is a most bizarre and potty pigeon. It flew into our reception one day and people were asking about it.
“If you put your arm to it, it will land on it, and will land on people’s heads whether they want Perry to or not!
“Perry has been here for at least the last six months.”
