Today I noticed this little
young pigeon being harassed by a larger pigeon. I don't know if the pigeon was a female or not, but everywhere it went, the larger pigeon chased after it. If it took off in flight, sure enough the larger pigeon took off in flight after it. If it landed on a building, on the ground, whatever, the larger pigeon was right behind it. None of the other pigeons were harassing this little pigeon.
What can be done in a situation like this? I felt so bad for that little pigeon being chased like that. I tried throwing food near the larger pigeon but it didn't seem to care. It was only interested in chasing after the little pigeon. I really wanted to sock him one but feral pigeons are too fast to catch.
I can't even understand why the larger pigeon singled this little pigeon out. Any ideas? Both seemed to be healthy and as I said before, no other pigeon was singling this little pigeon out.
