Wood Pigeon (Columba palumbus) Taking off after feeding on leaves. Its flight is quick, performed by regular beats, with an occasional sharp flick of the wings, characteristic of pigeons in general. It takes off with a loud clattering. Pigeons enjoy flights in strong winds, and it seems for pleasure.
