Love it or hate it (I actually love this one) I was in London earlier today photographing this for a news website - yes it's a giant pigeon by street artist duo Boe & Irony.

to me that is actually art as opposed to the squiggly indecipherable stuff that we sometimes see.

Yes Howard this is art not graffiti and it was painted not stenciled on, although some of the 'here's one I made earlier' stencils are very good.

That is brilliant, those eyes are really piercing, I wish we could have something of that quality in Dover.

Fantastic- even better than the New York subway trains. I agree it would be great to have some quality official grafitti in Douvres.
Never give up...

Following on from the giant pigeon, Boe and Irony (the artists) have done this rather wonderful crow which I photographed recently.

That is brilliant, they are very clever it can't be easy doing something so realistic that big.

Not normally a fan of this sort of thing but I find this most impressive.

Very impressive and clever even if it does give everyone the evil eye.

Brilliant. Let's have an even bigger one on Burlington House.
