As
a relative stranger to Ancoats, I was surprised to notice that some of the pigeons
near Victoria Mill were bright blue in colour instead of the usual black white
and grey. The only explanation that I could think of was that the local graffiti
artists had ran out of wall space and moved on to the local birdlife.
I expect this is not the real explanation but would be interested
to know if this has struck any of your readers as curious or if they know anything
about these oddly coloured birds.
