34 of the worɩds most beaᴜtιful pigeon breeds

When it comes pigeons, people share pretty mixed opinions. Some call them “flying rats” because of the diseases they carry and the poop the leave behind, while others (like legendary boxer Mike Tyson, for example) find the birds absolutely fascinating for their ability to cross long distances and always find the way home. However, there’s another reason why people love these birds – their looks.

“What looks?”, you may ask – and rightfully so. Most of us are used to seeing the regular old grey and occasional white, and brown ones on the city streets – but turns out there are much more exotic breeds of pigeons that you’ve probably never even seen before. And you’re in luck because today we’ll introduce you to some of the most majestic pigeon types out there – check them out below!
