  1. I would love to and believe me I have tried, but my garden is a very high terraced garden that climbs to the canal at the back of me. Whe I stand on the canalbank at the top of my garden I can check the roof of my house! This lovely bird just flutters to the very part of my roof that I cannot get to him/her. Whe it comes to the floor to feed/take water it moves at exactly the moment I creep up behind it! I am trying...honest....
  2. Hahaha....I am fascinated by all this...but my very efficient cat would have a field day! This pigeon is very lucky and seems to be catwise as it staying well out of reach..unfortunately that's out of reach of me too! I now have the full number, there is 08 after the GB. I have just received a reply from my original thread giving me the club secretary's number of Darlaston where the pigeon is thought to originate from. Thank you all for your jhelp. Karen
  3. Thank you, I have just rang and left a message with the details for Mrs Sheffield. She is going to call me back. It's is lovely to think that this very pretty bird will soon be back home. Karen
  4. This pigeon has been in my garden since Tuesdayish...I now have the number which is GBD02812 I haven't managed to contain it but he's quite happy on the roof and having a wander where I can't get at it! Karen
  5. I now have the number...wooohoooo! It is GBD02812 I hope this is correct and will help someone. I haven't managed to contain the bird but he is staying in the confines on my garden.
  6. Thanks but nope...can't see the browse button after I have clicked the post options button. I feel really really stupid as I am an e-learning specialist and can't even find out how to post an image. I have clicked on the image button in the toolbar but it only gives me html code and I don't understand coding.
  7. I have set the best picture as my own image. That was the only way I could think of doing it. The ring still isn't clear though.
  8. I have 2 pics but don't know how to upload them to this forum
  9. I have just managed to get close enough to look at the tag but not close enough to catch it. I can see the numbers 08 and 28 or 20 but the tag has some mess on it and it is obliterating all of it. I can only hope it comes to the floor at some point this evening. Cat is currently indoors and will stay as long as I can suffer the commotion of her wanting to go out!
  10. Similar wing markings but much whiter all over. He/she also has a white ring on it's other leg. I am worried for it as I have a very efficient cat...and I would be distraught if he/she came to harm. It is lucky that I have been working at home the last few days and been able to keep cat out of the way but when I am away I have no control over her hunting habits!
  11. Hello I have in my garden a beautiful pigeon that is obviously well cared for. It arrived 2 days ago and is still here. I have given it water and some wild bird food (I hope that's ok, I didn't know what else to give it). I would dearly love it to be reunited with it's owner but I don't know how to find them. It has a bluey green ring on it's leg but I've not yet managed to be able to handle him/her to see any number. I tried to look this morning whilst it was sitting on my window sill tapping on the window, but there I couldn't get it properly. Is this the only way of identifying it. It is very pretty with a white/grey mottled head and bib and the most lovely shade of pinky/lilac on the back of it's neck and green to the sides of it's head. The rest of the body is white with black bands around it's wings. I live in Chirk Bank, but I know that these amazing birds travel long distances so it could come from anywhere! All help greatly appreciated. Regards Karen
