Most puzzling

So I get home and find [livejournal.com profile] qbear sitting on the bed, playing on his laptop.

“I saw the strangest, most puzzling thing on the way home from the bus stop,” I tell him.

“What’s that?” he asks.

“I was about to cross Portola, at the light, when I noticed that in among that ring of hedges there was a white box, with the word ‘BIRD’ written on it.”

“Did you open the box?”

“Yes,” I say. “And there was a white pigeon, or dove, just sitting in it.”

“Was ‘BIRD’ hand written?”

“Yes, with a magic marker.”

“Well,” he concludes, “It’s truth in advertising! You can’t fault them for that!”

Both box and bird were gone this morning. I guess that someone wanetd to give someone else a pigeon (it looked fancy, like a "show pigeon") and left it where the other person could pick it up.

Most peculiar.
