She always stands out in a crowd...


the redhead. Lush red feathers - a standout among many. This redhead started showing up recently. I hope she stays a long time. It's nice to see something different.

Well, she's obviously not one of the 'common herd', dressing in their typical shades of gray pigeons-on-business suits. An individualist

Thank God we do have an individualist among the flock. It's nice to have something other than conservatives in this country.

I think I will call her Blaize with an "i".

So far Blaize has been showing up (along with a couple of homing pigeons).

Just saw another homing pigeon today. Oh No! They seem to be popping up everywhere these homing birds. I'll have to find out if there is a loft near where the ferals hang out because I'm all of a sudden seeing red bands on the legs like they're in fashion. There's got to be someone nearby who's taking up pigeons as a hobby.
