Subject: Pigeon falls in love with man

ANDY Maw ruffled his wife’s feathers by moving a young bird in at home — a pigeon who fell in LOVE with him.
Chartered accountant Andy, 42, took pity on the bedraggled bird when it turned up on his doorstep after a storm.
But now Pokey the pigeon can’t leave Andy alone.
The dad of four revealed how she: ATTACKS wife Trude if she goes near him; sits on Andy’s car DASHBOARD for drives; uses the family TOILET if it needs to go indoors; settles on Andy’s knee when he takes a BATH and STALKS him if he tries to spend time alone.
Andy, of Maidenhead, Berks, said: “It sounds crazy but she’s fallen head over heels for me.
“When Pokey is on her mating cycle and lays her eggs on her little bed in the bathroom, she sits on them for three weeks.
“But when that part of the cycle is over and she wants a mate she comes after me and sexually harasses me.
“She will fly over for me to caress her beak, peck my fingers and strut about puffing up her chest to deter females. If Trude comes near me she will fly at her head and peck her. She is overcome with jealousy.”
Trude said: “I would be happy to see her in a pigeon pie.”
Pigeon expert Prof Danial Haag-Wackernagel, of the University of Basel in Switzerland, said: “Pokey is ‘imprinted’ to Andy as a mate.
“The nest defence directed to his wife is a normal behaviour against intruders.”
