Brown baby pigeon rescued

[Lady Tarheel]

Wow, what an adventure. I thank God that Tooter decided to stay put this time.

And no, you haven't told us about the little black squirrel. I'll bet he is so cute and I'm looking forward to pictures of he and the entire gang.

Does the little squirrel live in the house? Never saw a black squirrel before.

Maggie, no she lives in the tree above Tooterville. She is an outdoor squirrel and eats out of my hand. I will see if she will pose for the camera.

Tooter out again!!!!!!

...tell TOOTER for me, to PLEASE don't do this again to all of us, I can't have another (almost) heart attack. Geez.....I'm glad he is fine.

[Victor]

I am at work now, and got some pictures of brown baby. Bev will download the so I can post late tonight. I will also post pictures on a Tooterville up-date in the Pet pigeon section, maybe tomorrow?

Did not see Little Critter, "our" black squirrel today.

Baby was fed well today a couple of times, and is drinking water on its own from a small hanging dish.

Still a peeper and good strong slapping wings.

There is no lack of excitement at Tooterville I see. The brown baby sounds adorable and the black squirrel as well. I can just imagine how you felt when you recognized Tooter was out. I know my heart would have hit my shoes. I'm so glad to read that all ended well and that Tooterville is once again safe and snug. Will be looking for pictures along with every one else.

My local feral flock has a lot of brown and red birds, but I rarely see anything aside from blue bars and blue checks in the feral flocks here .. a few self blacks here and there.

brown baby pigeon~

I had to reduce and adjust to make it fit on PT. I will transfer our other baby pictures and the "Tooterville after storm" ones in my PIGEON TALK ALBUM for you to view if you wish.

WHAT a lovely squeaker!! That's a very pretty bird, Victor!! MANY THANKS FOR POSTING!!

I say, you ARE up late tonight! Then again, I am too, but just getting ready to sign off. It's almost midnight here, so must be around 3 AM your time!

Glad I waited to see your little cutie!!

Thank you Shi !It is actually close to 2am, and yes past my beauty sleep time, but I wanted to get it done. I put the new set up pictures in my Pigeon Talk photo gallery and will create a brown baby pigeon album.It was suggested that since this baby was rescued from the MAT (Metro Area Transit) bus garage, that I name it MATT . Gee, I hope it is a boy!

[mr squeaks]

MATT is a lovely name! Of course, if a hen, I guess you wouldn't want Mata Hari, eh???

OK, you are only TWO hours ahead of us. Soon, you will be changing times, right?

THANK GOODNESS we don't do DST!! Would drive me to - uh - drink more!!

Good night and pleasant dreams to all!!

Love, Hugs and Scritches to ALL

he is adorable!,we are just back from visiting the guy with all the pigeons,wow,what a lot he has,and great loft setup,he was happy for me yasmine(my daughter)and kevan(my husband)to hang out and look and talk to him about pigeons,he had some very pretty grey and red bars and soem white and grey ones too,he showed us the "old birds"loft where the more senoir pigeys sit and enjoy the sunshine,wow were definatly going to go back,he made us welcome

[Victor]

Thank you, and I am glad you had a nice outing. That is nice that the pigeonkeeper has an area for the senor birds to live and enjoy their last years. He sounds like a very caring man.

[TAWhatley]

Thanks for the photos, Victor! Brown Baby is a beauty! How nice there is seating available for viewing and interacting with the pigeons!

yeah it was cool,he has been there since the 60s and is retired now,him and his brother spend a lot of their day at the lofts and he was happy that we were interested in pigeons and enjoyed a good chat about the birds,the old birds looked real content,just chilling out and enjoying the sun(a rare occassion in scotland lol)the pigeons were all very inquisitive and quite tame,people think we are strange because we like and care for pigeons,but quite frankly i dont care,seeing our flock brightens up the day
