TTC - The Better Way?

Why fly, when you can ride?  Especially when there is all this ash floating around, some gazillion metres above the earth, grounding million dollar planes and causing mayhem for human air travelers.


Just when our transit system has been demonised and received a healthy dose of crow, in terms of their definition of customer service, or lack thereof, along comes a pigeon out to prove everyone wrong.




Then again, the pigeon didn't have to deal with sleeping ticket agents, long line ups for tokens, use the despicable washrooms that most humans avoid at all costs, walk over and around puddles that test the hairs, follicles and passages of one's sinus cavities or defend against the sharply edged elbows, carry-on bags or strollers of fellow riders.  

Nope, just waltz in, gravitate to the centre pole, away from the rush, and casually walk out the sliding doors when your station comes up.  

What does this pigeon know that we don't?  And why is he better behaved than the average TTC customer?  


Sign him up, quick.

What a cute video! That little pigeon acted right at home and seemed to be quite adept at using public transport. But there may be something 'fowl' afoot here. :)

That's hilarious, Leeuna. 'Fowl' is a good word for the smells that usually emanate from subway stops.
