What is a "homing pigeon"?

A homing pigeon, also known as a carrier pigeon, is a specially trained bird capable of finding its way back to its home loft from distant locations. Bred for centuries, these pigeons have served as reliable messengers, delivering important messages across long distances. With their exceptional homing instincts and navigational abilities, they can cover significant distances at impressive speeds. Homing pigeons symbolize the remarkable partnership between humans and animals in the field of communication.
