And you should, I love nothing better then spending the day with my birds, it allows me to put things in perspective, lets me relax and regain my peace and contentment. It is my private corner of life...

Enjoy!

Thank you all.

Brad, glad to see you will spend time with your babies, there is indeed nothing more relaxing.
Tiny is a big boy, he is 440gr now, he was more at one point, pretty chubby LOL, he lost some weight though.

I have three disabled pigeons at the monent, Tiny is pretty tolerant whith those guys as long as I don't hold them. The minute I pick up another pigeon he comes over lands on top of them and pecks them. He is a jealous baby. I have to tell him every time that I love only him and those babies are sick and need our help. He seems to understand cause after I talk to him he stops.

Hi Reti! Hi Treesa!

Those are great stories! I continue to be amazed every day at the intelligence pigeons have! I would have never known or even thought about a pigeons intelligence, until I started caring for Squidget! Many times I thought I was a little nutty! But I now know differently! Pigeons are very smart and have real feelings!

Hi Denise,

I know you can appreciate the facts. When you spend so much time with a bird, the rewards are unbelievable. We discover the truth, with day to day, one on one contact. It is quite a reward rehabbing a bird, not only because we give them back a quality life, but we discover there is a distinct personality, and intelligence that also is gifted them by their Creator.

Reti and Treesa,

Great stories and beautiful birds! Thanks for sharing.

Tiny and Skye's stories! Loved them! How wonderful you could meet! While I am not a traveler, I've often thought it would be nice to have a Pigeon Talk centralized meeting so members could meet each other.

At least through the miracle of technology, we are getting closer through the computer...

I often thank Mr. Squeaks for being there the day I found him - because of an injured pigeon, I have found a great web site and lots of feathered and human friends! Of course I'm sure Squeaks is glad to be alive and able to be top bird over 4 cats and 1 human! How many birds can say that?!

Those are wonderful sentiments, Shi It would be nice if we could all meet but we are all over the globe so it would be a challenge to say the least. I'm sure if it was possible, we'd all have so much to talk about and many stories to share about our pigeons.

I sometimes think it would be neat if we all lived in the same neighbourhood, then we could have an "open house" once a week where we could meet each other and show our birds in person. Ah well, we'll have to settle for the internet; sharing stories, pictures and interests

[Trees Gray]

Thank you Linda and Shi

I'm so glad you enjoyed the stories.


I have also thought about us getting together with out birds, wouldn't that be fun?

If that was possible, as far as I'm concerned, that would almost be a perfect world.

Hi Reti and Treesa,

Thanks so much for sharing your stories, more wonderful stories about pigeons and the folks they charm into loving them . The details make for some great reading, like Tiny's first flight, Skye and Sonic's close bond w/each other after they're struggle for survival having been abandoned by their mom and the Pet Psychics' reading. And of course, Tiny calming down when told that he's the only pijie being loved, thank you both for taking the time to share your stories.

Well, while we may not be able to all meet personally face to beak, there is always the "handle" thread that Andi recently bumped! I learned so much about many of the members. Some I thought were males were really females and vice versa! I'm a good case in point because of my handle, "Mr Squeaks." Why would anyone think I was a female?

Still some members who haven't posted on the handle thread...we're waiting...

Treesa & Reti,
Thank you for sharing these wonderful stories. I enjoyed reading & learning more about your babies.
They're all beautiful birds. Tiny sure grew, didn't he?
You guys were blessed to have been able to meet in person.

Treesa, since Skye is a TV star, does he walk around with little pigeon sunglasses on?

Brad ~ Only recently, I was thinking how cool it would be if we all lived in the same neighborhood. Now I see the thought has crossed your mind also. Great minds think alike.

Hi Phyll,

Skye was impossible to live with for a short time, demanding peanuts all the time, and such....sunglasses didn't fit, with his head being so BIG..& out of proportion..

I'm glad you enjoyed the stories of our "kids"...I love hearing Jesse's story too.

[agent prongs]

It's a beatiful storie! May I use it for my book?
