Pigeons are "misunderstood", says North East Lincolnshire Council
A council is trying to change the public image of pigeons by saying they are "brilliant, loyal and deeply misunderstood".It is part of a drive by North East Lincolnshire Council to promote the area's coastline and nature authority has launched a social media campaign called "Beek Peek" and has asked people to share their photos of the coastal ranger Josh Forrester, whose role has been funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, said: "They're not vermin, they're actually incredibly intelligent." He added: "They're also really beautiful."They're so variable in their colourings. You see the glossy purple and blue feathers around their necks, they are really pretty."Last month, the City of Lincoln Council installed a net and rounded spikes to stop birds from nesting at the bus station. In Hull, signs are going to be put up asking people not to feed the birds in a city centre North East Lincolnshire Council is taking a different Forrester said: "There's nothing that we do to actively discourage them, as a council. We are very wildlife positive."Changing our behaviour would be the best way to stop pigeons from being there. "If people see them as a nuisance, then what can we do to discourage them from being there?"Maybe we're not as tidy as we could be in towns, so littering occurs. It's a natural food source for pigeons." Not everyone is a fan of who works at the boat hire kiosk at Cleethorpes Boating Lake, said: "They get in the way. "All they do is just poo, and we have to clean it up."However, Len Coleman, who was visiting the lake with his family, believes there is a place for said: "In the town squares, it's probably not the best place for them, but in the trees, they're really nice. So there's a place for them."

Revealed: The top baby names in England and Wales as Muhammad takes the number one spot for the second year in a row
The top baby names in England and Wales were revealed today, with Muhammad taking the top spot for the second year in a row. More than 5,721 boys were given the specific spelling of Muhammad in 2024, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), followed by 4,139 called Noah. The other top 10 baby names were Oliver, Arthur, Leo, George, Luca, Theodore, Oscar and Archie. Olivia retained the top spot on the list of girl's names, followed by Olivia and Isla. It marks the second time just one spelling of the Islamic name has topped the charts, although when all thirty-plus iterations are grouped together it has been the most common for over a decade, MailOnline analysis suggests. Each year the ONS analyses the latest baby name data, uncovering trends in how certain names have fallen out of favour or soared in popularity. Mohammed, a different spelling, entered the top 100 boys' names for England and Wales 100 years ago, debuting at 91st in 1924. Its prevalence dropped considerably in the lead up to and during WW2 but began to rise in the 1960s. That particular iteration of the name was the only one to appear in the ONS' top 100 data from 1924 until Mohammad joined in the early 1980s. Muhammad, now the most popular of the trio, first broke into the top 100 in the mid-1980s and has seen the fastest growth of all three iterations since. The name means 'praiseworthy' or 'commendable' and stems from the Arabic word 'hamad' meaning 'to praise' and is shared with the founder of Islam, the prophet Muhammad. Increasing sizes of Muslim communities across the UK fuelled by immigration, as well as the popularity of sporting figures such as Mo Farah, Mohamed Salah and Muhammad Ali are likely to have sparked the increase. The ONS only provides statistics based on the exact spelling and do not group names, as some groupings are subjective and not straightforward.
