Iranian Officials have detained two suspected "spy pigeons" near a uranium enrichment facility. One of the pigeons was caught near a rosewater production plant in the city of Kashan in Isfahan province, according to a report in the reformist Etemad Melli newspaper. "Early this month, a black pigeon was caught bearing a blue-coated metal ring, with invisible strings," an unnamed source says. Last year the Iranians arrested 14 squirrels for espionage. No, that is not a joke.
