What is the human pigeon AI meme?

A short clip of a pigeon with a person's head pecking and strutting among ordinary pigeons on a street or in a park. Human-faced pigeon clips have been on TikTok since at least early 2025; this page makes one from your own portrait.

How do I make an AI pigeon video with my face?

Add one portrait, pick a scene and generate. The model draws a new clip of a pigeon with that face. Nothing is replaced in an existing video, so no source clip is needed.

Is this pigeon AI video generator free?

No. A 5-second 480P clip is 63 credits, 10 seconds is 125 and 15 seconds is 188; the quote shows before you generate. Watching and downloading the examples on this page is free.

Does the pigeon have my face for the whole clip?

In the bench scene, yes, from the first frame. In the pavement scene our clip opens with the face small and half hidden behind other pigeons, and the human-faced pigeon stands clear only after a cut about halfway through.

What does not come out right?

The head is much larger than a pigeon's in every clip we made. Results also vary between runs: in a third bench clip the model drew a small beak over the nose and turned the sweater from the photo into the bird's plumage.

Can I put someone else's face on the pigeon?

Only with their agreement, and never a celebrity or public figure. You tick a confirmation before each generation. Do not use it to mock someone who did not ask for it.

What happens to my photos?

They are uploaded to Cicadas and passed to the model provider (MiniMax H3 Max, through fal.ai) for that request, as the privacy policy describes. The finished clip is private in My videos. The examples on this page were made from AI-made, fictional photos, not from anyone's uploads.

About human pigeon AI on Cicadas

Human Pigeon AI makes the pigeon-with-a-human-face meme from one portrait: a pigeon with your face bobs, coos and flaps among ordinary pigeons. Cicadas generates it with MiniMax H3 Max as a new vertical clip of 5, 10 or 15 seconds with park or street sound. It is your own photo on a pigeon in a new scene, not a face put into someone else's video. A 5-second clip is 63 credits.

The pigeon on the bench has a face.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from one portrait. The human-faced pigeon is there from the first frame, grins and flaps its wings between two ordinary pigeons. The head is much larger than a pigeon's, and it keeps smiling instead of pecking.

Among the crumbs, a familiar face.

Copy one into the prompt box above and adapt it to your shot.

“Realistic vertical phone footage of a park bench. From the first frame, a pigeon with the human head and face of the person from Image 1, at pigeon scale, stands on the back of the bench. It tilts its head, puffs its chest, coos at the camera and flaps its wings once. Two ordinary pigeons sit beside it. Keep the face and hair as in the photo. Park sounds and pigeon cooing, no music. Handheld shot, soft daylight, no text.”
“Realistic vertical phone footage on a city pavement. A pigeon with the human head and face of the person from Image 1, on an ordinary grey pigeon body, is in the middle of the frame from the very first frame, walking among ordinary pigeons that peck at crumbs. It bobs its head with each step, pecks at the ground like the other birds, then looks up at the camera. Keep the face and hair as in the photo. Everyday street sounds and pigeon cooing, no music. Handheld shot, natural daylight, no text.”

Human pigeon AI FAQ

Tested on Cicadas · reviewed 2026-10-05

Recorded on 2026-10-05 with MiniMax H3 Max reference-to-video through fal.ai: two 5-second clips, 9:16 at 480P with sound, 63 credits each here, each from one portrait (AI-made, fictional). The provider returned them in 8 and 10 seconds. On the bench the human-faced pigeon is present from the first frame; on the pavement the face is small and half hidden until a cut about halfway through. A first pavement run showed only ordinary pigeons until the cut; its wording was changed and it is not shown. A third bench clip, sent by the site's own server code from a woman's portrait, added a small beak to the face and turned her sweater into plumage. The town-square scene, 768P, and 10 and 15 seconds were not run.
