To solve the problem using the GRESA method (Given, Required, Equation, Solution, Answer), I'll walk you through each step.

### Problem Statement:
- **Given:** 
  - Mass (\(m\)) = 0.55 kg
  - Velocity (\(v\)) = 41.4 m/s

- **Required:**
  - Kinetic Energy (\(KE\))

- **Equation:**
  - The formula for kinetic energy is:
  \[
  KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2
  \]

- **Solution:**
  Substitute the given values into the equation:
  \[
  KE = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.55 \, \text{kg} \times (41.4 \, \text{m/s})^2
  \]
  \[
  KE = 0.275 \, \text{kg} \times 1713.96 \, \text{m}^2/\text{s}^2
  \]
  \[
  KE = 471.339 \, \text{J}
  \]

- **Answer:**
  The kinetic energy of the pigeon is approximately \( 471.34 \, \text{J} \), which matches the option B in your choices.
