Pigeons Perplexed By The Food God

On Thursday, I was trying to create new piles of bird seed down the alley, in an effort to persuade the pigeons to shift their roosting location to the end of the alley, so they would stop pooping on my neighbor's vehicle. They looked and looked at me, like I was out of my mind. Still, they made tentative efforts to comply with my new directive. The neighbors down the alley witnessed my efforts to encourage the pigeons and were so impressed they gave me ten dollars for bird seed.
