A few months ago I said we had an injured pigeon that would lay down to eat but could still fly, we never were able to catch it but it seems that the injury is improving, not well yet but it has improved somewhat and it is still here so that is a good sign! Last night I saw a pigeon standing next to one of my firewood piles, seemed okay, then it went back behind the pile and the garage. I thought maybe it was scared because we have idiots who have to shoot off fireworks that sound like bombs and forgot about it until this afternoon. I remembered it and went and looked and it is still hanging out there, doesn't seem to be in distress or injured, so I called my friend from Pocono Animal rescue who has helped us many times and she asked if there were flies around it which would mean an open injury but it doesn't have that. She asked if it had leg bands but we can't see it, it burrows itself in there when scared, but we also see it alert with it's head up, and we are wondering if it was someone's and just lost it's way and found these other ones here and is just timid to come out? I put a bowl with water out at her suggestion, and there is plenty of bird seed so it can eat, and we are just going to keep an eye on it, if it is okay, great, if it becomes obvious that it needs help then we will try to help it.
