I love the in-flight picture. Someone snapped that picture just at the right time.
I think you have a hen bird, but I've been known to be incorrect when guessing the gender.

I named the pigeon "Solo"....I met the express mail truck at the post office yesterday afternoon and she should be at the sanctuary by 3:00 P.M. today. Robin, that has the sanctuary will post pictures on her web site so that I will be able to check on her now and then. I actually miss the little bird already, it was kind of hard to put her in the box to ship her. She had been here about six months or so.

This has been a very interesting experience, and thanks for everyone that helped me deal with it, especially Jay, Charis, and Robin.

Just to update, Rick has received to shipping box, but as I know absolutely nothing about shipping birds, Charis will help him with that part. And by next week, Robin will have the bird. Good ending to the story.

That's a great name. Solo. I know it must have been very hard for you to put her in a box for shipping. And you will miss her around the yard, I'm sure. They're easy to become attached to. Believe me, I know. You did a good thing Rick. And it was my pleasure to help. Nice that you can get updates from the website. I'm sure she'll do fine. Thanks again for helping Solo.

Jay

Rick...you are a wonderful example of humantiy and you have done a very good thing for Solo. Thanks for being you.
