Dear Editor,
I was walking along the south dyke just east of Gilbert Road on Saturday, Nov. 6.
As I was passing by a parking lot, a vehicle came by, slowed then stopped to feed the pigeons who quickly gathered there.
They flocked in as seed was thrown from the driver’s side window.
Unfortunately, as the vehicle pulled slowly away, I saw three birds literally “expire” under the left rear tire.
While the gesture of feeding the pigeons is appreciated, I would suggest to anyone planning on feeding them to get out of their vehicle first.
I don’t think the driver was even aware of what happened.
