The El Paso Pigeon The first time I saw one of those “El Paso Pigeons” was the summer of 2012. My brother-in-law and I were standing in the backyard when he pointed up in the air and said‚ “Look‚ there is an El Paso pigeon.” In the beginning‚ I did not know what he meant by that because I was looking at the sky‚ searching for any kind of bird‚ but I could not see anything. “Right there in the tree‚” he said‚ and pointed at a plastic bag that was stuck in a tree.
