Pigeon flies into man's Norway apartment, leaves egg in frying pan

Norwegian Stian Fjelldal got a feathery surprise when two pigeons flew into his flat - and left an egg in his frying pan.

The pigeons left droppings all over Stian's kitchen in Oslo before leaving a single egg surrounded by twigs on his stove (which was turned off).

Unsure how to deal with the situation, Stian ushered the pigeons out of his kitchen window.

The egg still remains in his frying pan while he figures out what to do next.

Stian said: 'It was of course terrified when it saw me and started flapping around in the kitchen.

'It was chaos and a lot of feathers. My first thought was to get it out.

'I had to clean, the kitchen was a total mess. I noticed two of the birds on the windowsil looking at the egg. I almost felt a little guilty.'

Stian posted a video of the incident on Facebook, and asked what he should do with the egg.

One reply said: 'Lock the window, clean the kitchen, fry the egg and enjoy yourself,' suggested one user.

Another said: 'Don’t think of mother dove, there are plenty of feathered lovers in the city and it is still early spring.'

One bird lover suggested that he should hatch and rear the baby pigeon himself.

He added: 'I work at the Norwegian Enviroment Agency. I may bring the egg into work so we can take some samples. We may find traces of pollutants, in that way the egg will come to some use.'
