Fancy Pigeon in Issaquah, Washington needs home


Hi everyone,
We had a fancy pigeon reported to us on 911 Pigeon Alert. It has no band so there is no way of find the owner. The finder can't keep h/her, so this little one needs a forever home. The bird is in Issaquah, Washington and if anyone is interested in h/her please let me know and I can give you the phone number and email to get in contact with the finder. I'm including a picture of this little one.

That appears to be a fantail?

I wouldnt mind adopting it. As I have fantails already but Im not to close to the washington area. And transportation might cause for a problem

Michael, If there was a bird train to get you this little one to you I know the finder would let you have this little one. The finder said this pigeon is very sweet and would make a great pet.

Very cool! If there was any way it would be so awsome but if some one closer would like to adoupt it be much better than shooting for the moon.

We could pick up this cutie from Issaquah this weekend and hold it till we can connect with Charis. Who has the contact information for the bird? I've PM'd my phone # to Mary Ann.

Okay, Mary (flitsnowzoom) sent me the contact information for the rescuer and I will send her an email this evening.

Charis, I'll call you as soon as I have more information.

Received an email from Rebecca - waiting for her response to set up a meeting to pick up the pigeon for Charis.

Also had a great phone conversation with Mary Ann. I'll post as soon as I connect with Rebecca. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Pretty Eyes made the trip with quiet dignity - a beautiful Indian fantail. I'm guessing female, and very tame. This is one very lucky bird to have survived life on the loose without becoming a hawk-dinner. Thanks so much to Rebecca for feeding and caring for this bird while looking for a home for her!

Several poops produced on the ride home look normal - seems in good condition, although at 425 gms she could stand to put on a little weight. Currently set up with lovely seed, water and red grit.

Next step is to schedule the hand-off to Charis. Thanks so much for your dedication, Mary Ann!

Spent some time with Pretty Eyes this afternoon, making sure she was eating and drinking. (She really seemed to enjoy the red grit.) She is so sweet and gentle, and very elegant. I can see why fantails are popular!
