PIGEON UPDATE....

 

While my husband watched and laughed at me through the window (he likes birds less than me), armed with a towel (don't know why!!) and a box I've captured the pigeon.  No one mentioned how fast they can run!!! It cooed quite a bit and flapped it's good wing, but I think it's settled.  I've given it some water in a deep dish, and have learnt more about pigeons in the last few hours than in my 33 years of life.

 

I'll keep the bird tonite, and Tenny has kindly agreed to pick it up tomorrow morning.

 

Thank you everyone for your help and advice.

THANKS TO RHIAN FOR BEING UP EARLY FOR ME THIS MORNING . I WILL THANK HER PERSONALLY LATER AND ADVISE THE BIRD IS SAFELY BACK HOME!

The pigeon was bred by John Sparey from Newport and was one of three he gave Dai Evans to try out in 2009 YB season.

 

Lets hope the bird makes a full recovery and goes on to score for him.
