A mysterious pink ‘Barbie’ pigeon has left locals including telly star Helen Flanagan baffled.
The bird is covered in multiple shades of rose-coloured feathers.
It even has bright pink tail feathers and spots of the bright hue on its head too.
However, tiny flecks of grey can be spotted on the pigeon’s body.
Despite its unique look, the bird has been spotted hanging out in a flock of regular grey pigeons.
The pigeon has been dubbed a Barbie fan by townsfolk in Bury, Gtr Mancs after the hit Margot Robbie movie.
Coronation Street’s Helen Flanagan has also spotted the unusual rose-coloured bird.
She shared a clip of the pink pigeon to her TikTok.
The video shows the bird walking along the town centre and flying onto a shop roof.
She said: “Not my most glamorous post,
But a pink pigeon roaming the streets of Bury town centre.”
Some say they have seen it hanging out by a Wilko store.
But others have dubbed the bird a McDonald’s fan after spotting it outside a restaurant.
Local Andrea Jayne White said: “It’s usually on Wilko roof.”
”Outside Maccies last week,” said Jeanette McDade.
Whilst it is unclear how the pigeon got its coloured feathers, confused locals have shared their thoughts.
One person said: “Barbies promotion team getting carried away?”
”It’s just wearing the away kit,” joked James Hart.
”Pretty sure it was an Extra in Barbie,” said Pete Walker.
Local Moz said: “She’s a beauty.”
The Barbie movie – also starring Ryan Gosling – was the hit film of the summer.
It has made £1.1billon worldwide at the box office.
