Found a pigeon in Oakville, Canada. Breathing problem, missing tail feathers.


Found a white pigeon, its not doing too well. All its tail feathers are missing, and its got a breathing problem. I think its nose or whatever the pigeon has is clogged with something. It breathes through its mouth making this phlegm-like "snorting" noise all the time.

I have it in a big cardboard box. Gave it a dish with water and some wheat berries. Its eating, drinking I think too. Not too sure how hydrated the bird is but its pretty alert and it gets annoyed with me if I hold it too long. It doesn't peck or scratch, and its pretty curious about its surroundings if I pick it up out of the box. Eyes are bright, so I don't think its dehydrated.

Hopefully it will stick in there until I can figure out this breathing problem its having. Help??
