You can try e-mailing the british unions to see if the bird is registered with them - they should get back to you fairly quickly by e-mail

 

strays@rpra.org

 

nehu@nehu.co.uk

 

 

or the Belgian union

 

nationaal@kbdb.be

 

Give your own details: name, address and telephone number

Thanks for replies, I have tried phoning but number is unobtainable.  After bird resting up and eating it seems OK but still couldn't get him to fly this morning.  Is this normal? Really am concerned at what I should do with him.

there is a chance he may belong to somebody in the uk and there is a small chance he has a stamp in his wing with a phone number on for the owner. If you open up his wing you may see a number stamped on his wing flights.

If not where abouts in Suffolk are you, there maybe a member on here who lives near you who could help.

Keep the bird confined, rabbit hutch etc, give him a few days to feed and water. He may be exhausted which is why he won't or doesn't want to fly or he may be injured.

As long as he is eating and drinking then there is unlikely to be anything seriously wrong with him.

If you can find the thread on here "pigeon in my kitchen" you will find a lot of useful information.

Really appreciated your help, I tried the phone number again but bloke I spoke to didn't speak English so unfortunately couldn't get anywhere with that lead. Will try to get him to fly tomorrow, hopefully he will otherwise I don't know what on earth I will do with him, as I can't keep him.

email this address nationaal@kbdb.be  with your details and the birds details the bird will be reported , then no doubt the owner will get a friend to contact you about it ;-) best thing would be to get intouch with R.P.R.A and get hold of a member in or near your area that will take the bird off your hands ;-)
