THE plot thickens… There has been a third sighting of the mysterious pink pigeon in Bradford.

And for a second time, the exotic-coloured pigeon has been spotted at Lister Park, Manningham. This comes after another sighting last Saturday on a piece of grassland in Heaton.

The latest sighting of the exotic bird was near the lake at Lister Park.

Bradford Telegraph and Argus:

Qasam Mahmood spotted the pesky pink pigeon by the lake at the popular park on Tuesday during his regular walk at the site.

He said: “I’ve never seen anything like it before.

“I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. It’s a bit unusual.

“It’s a bit of a celebrity. I couldn’t tell if it was naturally pink, or if someone has coloured it.

“I have never come across a pink-coloured pigeon before.

“I was only a few steps away from it.

“Maybe one of the rarest birds in the world has come to Bradford.

“It was entirely pink, all over its body. I walk around Lister Park most days and that was the first time I have come across it.”
