Regarding pigeons... they're naturally cliff-dwellers. Which is why they adapted to cities so well.

I'm guessing that's why they took to dumping on statues, too. They were used to their toilet being stone.

A lot of statues aren't stone though, but bronze.
And no, the dumping waste on lift off is pretty much reflex for most birds as far as I know. It's less weight to lift and carry while flying.

It's a decent analogy... but the mouseover text takes it a bit too far. Source.
