Are dead pigeons an advanced warning?

Thank you for the comprehensive article "Strata committee to sue Ettalong Diggers" (edition 457).

It seems to many of us that the numerous dead pigeons on the building are Ettalong's version of the canary in the coal mine.

The canary dies, the miners promptly evacuate the toxic environment in the coal mine in order to save their own lives.

Could the dead pigeons be an advanced warning of some danger for the rest of Ettalong?
