pig the pigeon

[nikky]

Hi people.
I had to tell you my story.
I live in Sydney and picked up a baby pigeon fallen from a nest and reared it to a fine young male who couldn't keep away from me. he flew free around my backyard but would fly into the house at any given opportunity, This lead to an unfortunate incident with one of my dogs. A broken wing ensued and a broken heart (for me) . But I taped the wing and caged him for a month. he hated me. But I insisted and started to free him for ground feeding for a while. Today , I was slack and let the dogs out forgetting the pigeon was out and of course they chased him... But He flew up to safety. Rather clumsily ... Then of course I couldn't get him back into his cage. I couldn't get to him and had to go out. I got home at 2 am. And there He was in his open cage.
Safe as a house. See if He wasn't cured by the 31st december I was going to have to put him down. But he has other ideas. I am so happy for pig the pigeon. PIGS WILL FLY.
