A stunned pigeon who was laying in theroad.
Out on my ride coming, along anarrowish country lane a car went past in the other direction andwhen I rounded the next corner there was a pigeon sitting in theroad, looked a bit a bit shaken. I stopped, pick it up and carriedit to the verge. Did not appear to be injured, just a littlestunned. Left it there and when I returned around 40 minutes later,going the other way, it had gone.
Like to think it recovered and flewaway rather than a fox getting it.
