Pigeon flying backwards (1 Viewer)

No it's not a trick title.

Earlier in the week, when we had a very windy day, I was driving up to work, and there was a woodpigeon in the opposite carriageway, and an oncoming car.

The pigeon took off... the wind was so strong that it flew backwards, but in perfect control, landing on the top wire of an eight foot fence.

Pretty neat!

There was a Collared Dove over our garden doing that the other day - in the strong winds.
