Our

- is
- BACK!
- And
- about
- to
- trade
- places
- with
- a
- pigeon
- prince,
- descended
- from
- Indian
- royalty.
Dave
- Pigeon
- and
- his
- best
- friend
- Skipper
- are
- taking
- in
- the
- sights
- of
- London.
- Whilst
- pecking
- around
- the
- gates
- of
- the
- Royal
- Palace,
- looking
- for
- high-brow
- snacks
- to
- feast
- on,
- they
- meet
- Prince
- Raju
- Pigeon,
- one
- of
- the
- Queen's
- personal
- birds
- from
- the
- Royal
- Lofts.
Raju
- is
- tired
- of
- royal
- life
- and
- longs
- to
- see
- life
- beyond
- the
- palace
- gates.
- Dave
- suggests
- they
- swap
- places
- for
- a
- short
- while!
- Raju
- will
- get
- to
- see
- how
- normal
- pigeon
- lives
- and
- Dave
- will
- be
- pampered
- in
- the
- Royal
- Lofts.
Of
- course,
- this
- all
- goes
- to
- Dave's
- head
- and
- as
- he
- laps
- up
- the
- royal
- treatment
- becoming
- more
- unbearable
- than
- ever.
- But
- life
- in
- high
- society
- is
- not
- all
- it's
- cracked
- up
- to
- be
- .
- .
- .

- very
- feathery
- prince
