Or just "Pigeon Post"? Or even "Recreational Route". Anyway, Wood Pigeon, UK, awaiting the best title I can give it.

Looking back at my old photos from various locations, that "not round pupil" thing in wood pigeons seems more often present than not. I wasn't something I'd looked previously out for.
It's pretty common, I believe! It's just pigmentation though, not an actual pupil shape.
Lemme dig around..
Digging around didn't yield what I thought it would. I thought I had a picture of a goose with a similar thing going on, but that probably was something else. Sorry.
