Pink Pigeon?!!

Not something I have ever seen before but found an article from 2015 which may answer your question

Hi Daniel, sadly, some people spray paint pigeons to use them at events and shows. There was recently a guy in the US who glued little sombreros and hats on some pidges. It is a cruel practice. Where did you see this bird?

Thanks for the reply! I assumed that this may have been the case, although I did not want to believe it. I was not aware of that the sombrero thing. It's sad that people find pleasure in such things... I saw this in the city centre of Bradford on a small park. Although it was sad to see, I'm glad only one pigeon was affected and there were many thriving there!
