Saturday morning a family from Hassocks near Burgess Hill travelled down to the little village of Bentworth near Alton in Hampshire.

"We were about 10 minutes away from Bentworth when we had what we thought was a near miss with a pigeon. We couldn't see the bird anywhere so thought the bird must have flown off. We had no idea the pigeon was trapped behind the grille for the rest journey and our return home later in the day" said Katherine Cotterell from Hassocks.
