Correlation to theme
Contains the noise of pigeons + a laid-back bassoon rhythm that I think suits the animal.

The bassoon is great and I love when the pigeon sounds come in. It shows how well it matches. Also, I like the bassoon’s melody!
The sequence of the first two sections is a bit peculiar.
The choice of intruders is cool, and I love the part at 0:29
The bassoon was really nice and I agree it does fit pigeons quite well.
From the name and start of the song, I thought it would be a bit of a stealthy "silent assassin" song. The sudden speedup at 0:07 caught me off-guard, as if you'd been spotted. I like the pigeon sounds throughout, although the use of literal pigeon-sounds can be a bit of a cheap way to make a song fit the theme (which is why I like the use of a bassoon: flutes work really well for these types of songs). The ending also came a bit unexpectedly; I would have either finished it with a nice ending or made it fade out.
I am curious as to what your mindset was when making this song. Overall, I do really like the song, it sounds great! Well done :D
