My work requires me to apply an analytical mind to day to day tasks, and I must admit analytics facinate me.

Take for example our YouTube account. We opened our YouTube account on 17/06/2010 (thats 17th June 2010 to you folks over the pond), and over the past couple of years we’ve uploaded over 130 videos of pigeon related goodness, some more successful than others.

Our top 10 videos:

#	Video Title	Views
1	Baby feral pigeon feeding	40,719
2	Pigeons kissing and mating	32,043
3	Pet pigeon (Elmo) cooing and dancing to camera	12,775
4	Pet pigeon (Elmo) in nest with toys	10,535
5	Pet pigeon (Elmo) and the food experiment	8,669
6	Pet pigeon (Georgie) flying in garden with harness on	4,831
7	Pet pigeon (Elmo) very excited: cooing and head-butting	4,021
8	Pigeons in aviary – males coo to female	3,933
9	Courting male pigeon	3,746
10	Baby pigeon begging for food	3,468

Now I think that’s pretty impressive.

SO! Help us out and share our videos, or subscribe to our YouTube channel!

Hey you two –

Your pigeon videos are always a joy to see. I try to make a point to check in each evening before I get ready for bed to see if there’s been any new updates etc… Yay pigeons!

Thanks again for taking the time to share with us!

Enjoy the evening.
