Sick feral?


I saw this pigeon in a new flock in a new area that I had been visiting. I noticed that it seemed like it was pooping clear watery poop every two minutes although it did not seem to be in pain and was eating very well. No food in the poop - just watery and clear. I gave this new flock seed - I felt so bad for them. They looked like they were sick of eating the bread someone had left them and needed a change.

I know there is no way to help this pigeon (I can't catch it, it's too fast, so what's new?) but I never saw a pigeon poop as much clear poop as this one did. There used to be a lot of pigeons that hung around where this pigeon was, but the flock has dwindled quite a bit. I hate to think the worst, that this pigeon was sick and spread whatever it has but I'm beginning to think so.

Any ideas of what illness this pigeon might have? I wish there was a way to put medicine on the corn seed to help it but I have a feeling that won't work.

Pigeons may get sick but they don't like being caught in order to get well.
