Nagoya is home to Osu Kannon Temple, a popular historic site that houses a carved wooden statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy. Tourists from all over Japan visit the temple, and now, even pigeons are flocking to the site.

According to Twitter user Misusabu, a storage area for pigeon feed (as marked by the sign on the stand) located at the temple was raided by a hungry horde of pigeons. They appear to have pillaged the goods stored inside, and spread the love to fellow pigeons who no doubt gathered in a moment's notice. The cause? "Somebody forgot to close the glass door." This is especially humorous, as a notice placed on the door clearly reminds in Japanese that "If you open the door, please close it when finished."

We're sure the higher-ups of the temple's bird food storage bureaucracy will be a little angry at whoever let this one slip, but hopefully they'll be forgiven. After all, Kannon is the goddess of mercy!
