  Amazing! I hope the pheasant tastes nice. You are going to cook it, right?

  That's the best post on here in ages. Well done. Incidentally, a pigeon hurled itself with impressive force against the big glass window by my desk in my office (Holborn, not SGR) on Friday morning. It made quite a noise, and left a very distinct spatchcocked imprint of itself, with some feathers. I did peer out to see if it was lying injured on the pavement below, but there was nothing there.

  I knew the area was gentrifying, but this is too much...

  I'm sure I've seen that bird before, round the back of the Larrick...

  I love this thread! Unaesthetic - massively impressed with the photo. Not sure I would have had the presence of mind if it had happened to me.

  What a cracking post (sorry, couldn't resist)..
  
  And I must admit the google ads next to it raised a wry smile.
  
  Have been telling people at work about this all day. No-one believed me. But tomorrow, with photographic evidence it will be a different story. Mark my words...

  I hope you twittered/tweeted as it crashed in. I love it and will be sharing widely. Including on Twitter.

  only just got around to sorting the clothes from the rack this morning, to found that it had shat on some. is pheasant shit believed to be an aphrodisiac in some cultures?

  Still not done with re-washing the laundry. Meh.
  
  But we did send the photo to Time Out, so it's all good.
