feral

[Lee]

Lee here,
I got a feral from a rehab place up the road, I have had him for 2 years now . He had a shattered wing bone from a bb gun and was bleeding badly , I called my VET and he said welll !! aint much can be done!!! i decided to do all i could to help this little guy. I operated on his wing and installed a brass wire in his bone and sewed him back up ..... to make a long story short he healed well and can fly he dont fly far but he lives in one of my lofts with the other birds and when i open the trap for exercise he flys to the ground and usualy up on the roof . He has taken a mate and i have raised 4 Ybs from him they are real good birds and can home with the best .. I think that a feral shows us what it takes to be a survivor i have learned a lot about pigeons by looking at him and sometimes he comes up to me and acts like he is hurting i pick him up and make over him some and look at the old scar he closes his eyes then he flaps his wings like he is happy .. God puts many things in our path and i am thankful one of them is the pigeon.........
