Caloenas nicobarica
Isn't this little guy beautiful?
It's a Caloenas nicobarica, or The Nicobar Pigeon. It's native to the uninhabited Nicobar Islands in the Indian Ocean. I wonder how they found it, then...

Pigeon = rat with wings.

Normally, I'd completely agree with you...but this is NOT a New York City pigeon!

Hey! You leave our winged rats alone. Only we can disparage them cause we live them. After all, we don't calling all you Southern folk rednecks and all you Michiganders.... uh... what do they call them anyway, unemployed assembly workders? Oh yes I went there! It's called transferrence. Yes, I'm beginning to feel better already by picking on you people.

There was a comedian once who really made fun of New York pidgeons. He said something along the lines of "What's up with their call? There's so much pollution that their call is stuck in their throat! They can't even make normal bird sounds!"

I'd imitate them for you to make the joke visual, but I'm thinking that's not going to work here...
