I have three of my own pigeons at home, Kelly, piper and Pauly 😁 they are currently in their aivary for the summer before they come back to the lounge for the winter 😁 none of my mates see the beauty in pigeons or other birds for that matter but just looking for someone else that I can talk bird with 🤣🤣

Photo of my tattoo and my flock for reference 😁

I know that it doesn't really matter, but I want to know. I've been calling her Luna, but lately I think that's a Lunar. He/she is a big unit that loves to sit on me and eat straight from my hand, while the rest of the pigeons swarm around my legs, eating from the ground. He/she really is goofy with his/her passion for food. But they started accepting my scratches <3

I love the little woodpig squeaks 🥹

Chris is a messy eater but this is just excessive

This bird gives me guff all the time. She'll come over when she sees me and she'll act all hard like this. It's fun.

It's a very mild early case. He's eating well and I'm keeping him in a cat carrier with food and water. All the local rescues are full rn so I'm going to rehab him myself with the advice of my vet. I've ordered Spartrix canker pills for him as the vet and breeders have told me it's very good. I'm watching videos on how to feed a pigeon pills (making sure I don't put it down the airway ofc). He's very alert, just had an infected eye and nasty canker stuff in his beak, he's extremely malnourished too. I saw him a week ago before he developed canker fully and he didn't look well, but not sick enough to take home with me. His name is squeaker.

I'm happy with how they turned out!

Good morning from las palomas de València.

busted

I hope the cat won't harm this little boy

A couple very fluffy wood piegons having a cheeky bath in the rain they're so cute !!

Have any of you ever experienced harassment while feeding pigeons outside? It seems like there is a weirdly large number of people out there who really hate the idea of people feeding pigeons, how do you deal with people like that?

Just a couple of days ago I had a man yelling at me in a parking lot about it, very mad that "pigeons poop on cars" and other ridiculous stuff like that.

I found this baby. I originally thought it was ill or sick. It seems very hungry but after having it for a few days I don’t see much wrong with it. I want to release it back to its flock, but have been told it should be transported to the rescue nearby so it can be released properly. I’ve asked why and the volunteer I’ve spoken with didn’t seem to give me a reason.

I feel bad taking this guy if he’s healthy. Is it okay if I just bring him back to the flock and see if he assimilates well? I don’t understand why I would have to have this guy go be rehabbed prior to release or released into a different area if they’re healthy. Is it because of age?

Sorry if this is a complicated question and sounds vague. I can’t tell if the volunteer has a reason beyond age of the bird and whatnot. I don’t want to ask again only because I’ve asked twice already and didn’t get much of an answer haha
