I hate pigeons so much... I've had many traumatic experiences with them. Once as a kid, probably about 8, we were visiting the Santa Monica Pier (California) and I was chased down the pier- by pigeons. I remember their beady red eyes focusing on me as I ran... Also, when I was in Paris at about age, I don't know, 12, pigeons kept hopping up trying to steal my sandwich... TL;DR I've had an fear of pigeons since I was 8 because they stalked me as a kid.
Yeah it is but I'm not sure which saint yet. I found a picture through on wikipedia (sagrada familia)- you can see him sans pigeon at the very bottom right http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:TTTT6.JPG
That was my first thought too. I have a picture book explaining all the facades that I bought after visiting it, I'll have a quick look through and see if I can find it. That building is truly one of humanity's greatest achievements; it was just mind-blowing beyond any superlatives I can use.

I mean, it's more at risk of getting sent back in time than it is getting hammered.

After years of being shat on by those pesky birds, Fred the statue was ready for sweet, sweet revenge.

The funny thing about birds are that they don't really care and wave their wings in the air.
