Pretty darn cute. Congratulations.
I'm so glad you went to get her early instead of wait for delivery.  Great job!

Thank You all so much for Journeys warm WELCOME home!
As much as I'd love to revel in her homecoming, I know there is LOTS more WORK and Pijies to be saved.... The Shelter where Journey came from informed us today they have 3 MORE they JUST got IN! SO If you are wanting to join in and offer these birds a home: NOW IS THE TIME! ALL the information that you need to become a part of The GREAT KING-CARE-A-VAN is listed here among the threads! Phase III .... I'm Psyched FOR you guys!!!!!

This could be the time to start Journey's very own thread so you can keep us up dated on her progress and cuteness.

Elizabeth and KariJo are already making plans for the next trio of Kings (Phase III) to be on their way. E-mails are being exchanged as we write, to arrange for $ and addresses and weather info necessary for "lift off".
Phase IV in in the wings, probably waiting for a month or so as this may be a larger "convoy". Stay tuned and keep cheering on those people "on the ground" in San Francisco making all this happen for these regal orphans.

I love youI love you, I really do. All of you! Thank you for helping Journey find a home (and WHAT a home!!!).
I never really got to spend much time with her. I pulled her from SF ACC when they were too full and birds were at risk of euthanasia and a Mickaboo volunteer drove her and 3 other kings and 4 hens up to Marin Humane Society who, thanks to a hook-up from Marcy, founder of SaveABunny Rescue, offered space when we really, really needed it. I got a picture of her when I stopped by a week later but that was it. I don't really know Journey. BUT I've met enough king pigeons to know that she will be sweet (or sassy), easy-going (but opinionated) and that she cherishes life and wants to live, to have a family, to have a home. I've been out of town (Round 2 of emptying my mom's house) and was internet-challenged but Diane and Kari Jo and Jenn kept me updated via e-mail and what a drama it was! Pouring rain, NOBODY in the North Bay to make the trip... but we got it done. I love you. Thank you. And today I pulled nine eggs from 5 of my foster king pairs. Here's nine eggs that won't become homeless pigeons. I hate pulling eggs. I gotta pull eggs. Last edited by Elizabethy; 16th March 2009 at 08:04 PM.

Jenn was soooo right . . . you can't sit down . . . you are glued to your email and PT . . . waiting for the word. Lizz and I have both emailed Elizabeth, KariJo, and Diane and we just need to know where to send shipping cost to. Or if they need an exra box. It could happen Monday!
Elizabeth . . I guess I should pick two huh? If you really don't have two sweetie girls then how about Tony Baby and Doll, they are awfully cute too! It is just so hard to chose when so many need a home.  Now for that glass of wine!

Some of these birds have been waiting for up to a year for their new forever homes...another week or two is worth the wait if it makes their trip safer or more comfortable, which is why you are waiting ...but which does not make it any easier to wait!!!
