Have To See It To Believe It: Internet Loses Its Collective Mind Over Bizarre Bird

All animals deserve love, but it is pretty clear that we humans have our favorites. Cute creatures tend to stand out to us the most. But what about those that are a little more on the bizarre side? There are plenty of animals that fit that description, but it’s possible that you have never seen one quite like the little guy in the video below.

When you think of a pigeon, the word “bizarre” probably doesn’t cross your mind. They are fairly average birds, after all. But this particular type of pigeon, the Jacobin pigeon, is anything but ordinary. With so many feathers around their head, there are angles where their face is entirely covered. See one of these odd little guys for yourself below!

“I can’t be the only one who thought that was a squirrel,” someone admits in the comment section of the video, with another adding, “I’ve watched this so many times, trying to figure out where its eyes are.”

With feathers styled like a haircut, it’s no wonder people are absolutely loving this stylish creature. That said, lots of folks are also confused. Understandably, not many people are able to identify this type of bird. Luckily, a woman named Kyndal is more than happy to show off her very own Jacobin pigeon.

These pigeons definitely look less bizarre once you’re able to get a closer look at their face. Still, their fluffy plumage makes them unique and totally fitting of a name like Lady Gaga!

“She’s beautiful. She reminds me of Phyllis Diller,” someone in the comments cleverly points out, with another adding, “What a queen she is. Lady Gaga would be proud of her.”
