Catch the pigeon

I held up heavy traffic for twenty minutes today because a stubborn Ms. Pigeon refused to vacate the piece of road directly in front of my car. What’s more, her friend flew down and they started having a long chat (probably about the state of the economy or so I like to think) and for a while she disappeared under my car too. I didn’t have the heart to drive off until I knew she was definitely out of the way but the other drivers behind me were not happy bunnies.
