Common Pigeon  

Common pigeons have an exceptional ability to find their way home over long distances, a skill known as homing.

They have been used in wartime to carry messages due to their reliable homing ability.

Pigeons can recognize themselves in a mirror, indicating a level of self-awareness.

They are capable of distinguishing different human faces and can remember them.

Pigeons mate for life and both parents share the responsibility of incubating eggs and feeding their young.

They have a unique ability to see ultraviolet light, which helps them in navigation and finding food.
