:03:49. > :03:51.up even earlier and on Centre Court His name's Rufus and he's a bit

:03:52. > :03:58.of a legend around here. 15 years ago there were hundreds of

:03:59. > :04:00.pigeons hanging around Centre Court and they had the potential to

:04:01. > :04:04.disrupt matches. Even this ball boy struggled to get this page and off

:04:05. > :04:07.the court. That doesn't happen any more and it is all down to risk

:04:08. > :04:18.this. He starts work every morning at five o'clock and scares away

:04:19. > :04:23.pigeons. Imogen looks after Rufus. Pigeons realise this is not a safe

:04:24. > :04:27.place for them to come and live. Still Rufus does not swoop down and

:04:28. > :04:37.grab a pigeon and eat it? Now he does not. He is a non-lethal hop. --

:04:38. > :04:42.hawk. He will sit on the top of the roof. He will enjoy the sunshine.

:04:43. > :04:45.The bird of prey is six years old and is the second bird to have

:04:46. > :04:51.worked on centre court. Fortunately for the pigeons, risk this could be

:04:52. > :04:54.working at Wimbledon for the next 20 years. -- risk this could be

:04:55. > :05:01.working. -- Rufus. And Rufus and Imogen join me

:05:02. > :05:04.now live on the Wimbledon roof. Any pigeons

:05:05. > :05:06.on Centre Court this morning? Now the eagle-eyed

:05:07. > :05:10.among you will be familiar with Ronaldo the Newsround Parrot -

:05:11. > :05:13.our World Cup predicting bird. Well, it's time for him to get

:05:14. > :05:16.off his perch for a second and let Rufus take over to tell us

:05:17. > :05:20.if he thinks Andy Murray will win Imogen, you have a Yes glove and I

:05:21. > :05:26.have a No glove. Will Andy Murray retain

:05:27. > :05:48.his Wimbledon crown? No. He says no. He is not very

:05:49. > :05:55.good. He had not had his breakfast yet. According to risk this, Andy

:05:56. > :05:58.Murray will not win Wimbledon. -- according to Rufus.
