if you could build something like a dovecoat box I think that would cover a nice living space for him to get out of the wind and call home something like this but with maybe only one or two holes

He's a beautiful bird. To the bird seed, you could add unpopped popcorn, green split peas, and lentils. And Most love safflower seeds. That would give him a better mix, and variety.

Just saw that he has left. Maybe he is headed home.

Gee, I hope he comes back. If he did this before, then he may very well do it again. Guess he knows how to get back to you. Please let us know if he does.

If a hawk had gotten him, usually there would be more than one white feather. Don't give up hope yet.

I'm sorry. Maybe he is headed home. Who knows. Keep an eye open for him. You just never know. Good luck. Let us know if he does come back.

Snowblindness????


Has anyone heard of snowblindness keeping pidgies from coming outside? A friend of my dad's who has a coop said he doesnt let them out when it is snowing or snow on the ground as they get blinded and end up being lost???
