Removing the Pigeon would be a good first step.
Let the kids swim in it for a bit, their pee will counteract any leftover pigeon diseases
It’s only a pigeon. Your average dog swimming would be worse. In fact tge average toddler would be.
Some people have all the luck
dont worry about it ? not like it landed in your drinking water. id trust the pool chemicals to do their thing.
Chlorine is basically strong bleach. Bleach will kill any unwanted bacteria. No need to throw out the pool net.
You want to sanitise the giant soup of chlorine?
A dead pigeon is cleaner than a live pigeon. If there’s chlorine in there I wouldn’t be worried.
Are you sure it didn’t die because it drowned in there? Would there have been any way for it to get out if it fell in and got waterlogged?
Dinner is sorted
Bro…
Or was he pushed?
I’m pretty sure a dead pigeon didn’t land in your pool. A live pigeon landed in your pool, couldn’t get out & died.

Try something like this in the future.
Just add a dose of chlorine as per the instructions for a ‘shock’ for Algae. That’ll kill anything and make you feel better.
Didn’t you have safety tube for pigeons near your pool? 😱😱 You might be fined for that
I had a dead rat in the skimmer basket the other day. Looked fairly fresh. These things happen with pool ownership.
Squeeze the pigeon with both hands until its guts puke out, rinse them guts with chlorine bleach pool water. Enjoy a swim
I would consider extra chlorine in the pool for a bit – pigeons can carry cryptosporidium – can cause diarrhoea
