A Manhattan man wants to stop overzealous pigeon feeders who are creating a bird-seed buffet in his neighborhood.
This Manhattan resident’s petition drive is not for the birds.
“The noise, commotion, scattered seed, and feces are all invasive to the tenants on the block and pigeon feces is linked to numerous diseases,” saysstarted by Christofer Holland, who lives on East 26th Street. It had garnered 62 signatures as of Saturday morning. On Wednesday, one of the pigeon lovers quickly threw down bird seed on East 26th Street and scurried away as dozens of birds descended.
Another neighborhood resident said pigeons are also being fed on East 27th Street and when they circle the area it’s like a scene out of Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds.”
