This is a little funny. It seems the pigeons are missing on purpose, to give each other food. Now I don't know about that behaviour in pigeons, but it is studied in apes. ( Game playing and food sharing ). If you don't think birds are smart enough to do this, search this "Wild crows inhabiting the city" on youtube.

@BlackLazor actually it is part of the operant conditioning. in order to make the pigeon's to learn the whole ping pong game you need to engorge them by each little step they do. Skinner, one of the most important psychologists whom discovered the operant conditioning has done this kind of experiment.

@sweetkyss This is called classic conditioning and has almost nothing to do with shaping. Shaping is more refered to withing operant conditioning.
well they're definitely smarter than one human at least.
