Can anyone help? For the past few days there's been a 'fancy pigeon' in our garden. NPA website says don't report it until we've caught it & have the ring number.
Does anyone know how we can catch it?
It won't let us near enough to throw a towel over.
It doesn't seem injured, but is clearly lost & needs to go home.
We're concerned bc of the large number of local cats, & foxes.

Pests by Bethany BrookShire
What makes a pest? Is such a label even fair? A fantastic blend of narrative and science, this book looks at different animals across time and space and our relationship to them. Prepare to have your assumptions challenged, no matter what your current viewpoint.

I'm pretty certain that there are some pigeons that have mastered the art of travelling on the London Underground. I always enjoy capturing photography of them using trains like regular commuters

Your Lonely Larry the Pigeon news update for Saturday April 22nd 2023:
Larry has been waddling around the garden but cannot get airborne. Does anyone know if his flight feathers will grow back?
Mostly Larry is mooching behind the primroses under the bird feeder & picking up whatever the smaller birds drop. I threw out old Doritos crumbs but he's ignored them.
When it started to rain this pm he wasn't big on self care & crouched on the lawn per the photo.
Once upon a time there was a pair of pigeons in our garden.
One day Mrs Pigeon couldn't fly any more and waddled around the garden looking sorry for herself. Mr P followed her around.
Three days later Mrs Pigeon was lying dead on the lawn, so before the dog got to her I wrapped her in a plastic bag and put her in the wheelie bin.
A sky of our own

i saw my preening pigeon pals again yesterday…
They watched me just as much this time.
I have a pigeon pair who have claimed my balcony. They’ve started a nest under the porch furniture. While they were away, I snuck a peek.
What curious materials! Can you guess that there is a construction site right next door?
They’re stealing all the supplies!

Heartening to awake to this sight — which means 2nd #egg has hatched 🙂
Apparently, #pigeons & other #birds instinctively toss the egg shell outside their nest (for hygiene & to throw off predators).
No sighting of l'il guy, momma sitting on both...

Elevating the status of the humble pigeon. Thanks, NatGeo 🤯

In happier birding news, today's misty morning beach outing was also filled with very serious, no-nonsense Herring and Ring-billed gulls, much maligned, yet beautiful Rock pigeons, ridiculously adorable Snowy(?) plovers, and a camera shy male Northern cardinal. Android phone takes meh pix and yet I still managed to capture these sweet faces and a little action.
