I couldn't see the bands fully as the bird was feeding and walking around in leaf mulch. I will send you the number. Thank you.

hi there,I enquired about a lost pigeon I have been watching,I spent some time today with bird seed and managed to get the green ring number, I'm not sure if the number is complete though. DF 3405 Tu 4?. There is also a phone number that I tried to call but I have not had a reply, I would be willing to try and catch it if I knew the owner could pick it up quite quickly, I have a 1 year old at home who loves boxes. I hope this help the bird be returned.

I put out some uncooked rice and lentils and a bowl of water with more than 1.25 inches, the rice is gone and unfortunately the bowl has been stolen,I will put more out tonight, the bird has been here for more than a week now and doesn't look like he's going anywhere, I have a friend who is a photographer and he may do me a favour and use his great camera and camouflage gear to try and take good photo's of the birds rings to get the numbers, I tried to call it over but using like a.dog sound,I have no idea if you can call a pigeon over. I thank you all very much for advice.

Thank you very much, if I do catch it how long can it be kept for?,would a box with air holes be fine?, I wouldn't want to cause it stress, again, thank you.
