Hi! I have an almost 2 month old pigeon that I've had for like 3 or 4 weeks now that is pretty much very tame and not too nervous around me (he steps up, eats from my hand and I can touch him in general without any trouble, that is when he's not a grouchy teenager :p) –However whenever I let him...

Me and my boyfriend found a pigeon baby out of it's nest about a week ago. We took him in, now he is living in a large cardboard box lined with shredded paper in the living room. He has a few issues, including a torn air sack - we are treating him with that. Now he is about 3 weeks old and does...

Hi there people! Could you please help me! The other day I I rescued a teen pigeon that was being attacked by another pigeon. He is only a teen although he looks like adult as sometimes he makes baby pigeon noises squeak squeak and flaps his wing as if while feeding. I assume his parents are...

Hi, We are Alien Class at Garlinge Primary School, Kent (Reception year), and we have found a juvenile wood pigeon in our outdoor area. It would not fly away and hid itself under the bushes. The teacher has managed to secure it at lunch time and it appears to have very short tail feathers. It...

Good day everyone. I've with me as I write this two juvenile mourning doves. They have feathers and can fly only so much. One of them has gotten the hang lf flying here and there. The problem is the food. They're old enough to drink water from a bowl, at least one of them is, but not old enough...

my son found dove inside his shop at BMW, wouldn't leave and was hanging around the workers. No tags. He called me since I have pigeons. Bird does not make sounds I'm used to with doves and pigeons, so I'm guessing it's a juvenile. It's squeaking rather than cooing. I've put it in cage with...

So i found a pigeon by my apartment building. It was getting dark and he had an injured head (nothing severe), so i took him in. the bird has an injury on his head, something kinda like scalping but no scalp is showing and all skin is intact. Just kind of a bald spot that was wounded. I...

hey guys, i havent been on here in ages and seeing my old posts makes me cringe little. But you guys have always been here for me and I need your help once again. I came home from work today and saw a very young woodie struggling on the side of the street. Its wings seemed off and it couldn't...

Hello, On Tuesday, I saw a baby pigeon on the street and it looked very small and was trying to fly but couldn't. i gave it bread but it wasn't eating at all. I stood watching to see if the mother would come and about 30 minutes later a big bird came and was eating the bread I put on the floor...

Hello there. The other day I've picked up a young collared dove. It is about 3-4 week old I suppose, totally fledged, but still having some yellow fluff, and even able to eat by itself. The thing is that the juvenile's sitting almost motionlessly all the time, only grooming its feathers...

Hail, all. For those of you who recall Lady B., hello once again. A new bird has sorta tumbled my way. It lived through the night and day and night again. It was found flapping in the street with a truck heading for it, which would surely have run it over. From what I've been able to find, this...

Hi, I'm new here. I sought this forum out because earlier today I found a pigeon. It can't fly but it's not injured. It's missing about 3 primary feathers on its left wing and its tail is pretty featherless. I suspect it's a juvenile from what I've read but then again I'm not an expert. I don't...

We found a juvenile wood pigeon with its wings splayed out on our lawn with a cat nearby. We think it may have flown into our window as we heard a bang about 20 mins before that. We chased the cat off and kept an eye on it but it didn't fly off. We were concerned the cat may come back and as...

Hello All! I'm new to the forum and hoping someone can help. On Saturday evening, I went into my garden and down the side path of the house was a pigeon, who ran/scuttled away when I opened the garden gate to walk up the path. I approached him and he ran away and hid behind a bush, he...

I found a somewhat stunned young pigeon under a railroad bridge in London two weeks ago. I seems that it had fallen out of its nest but could not yet fly back. I was able to easily take it home (I can not really get too close to it now). It started eating and drinking within a couple of days and...

Hello everyone I found this beautiful little baby trying to run away from a cat this morning, some of her feathers at the back are a little scuffed up, but thankfully there's no blood or anything. I called a wildlife rescue, unfortunately the woman wasn't very helpful, she told us to put her...

Hi There, I'm Twimper and i found a little friend out side my front door today. He (going to use he for easiness of writing but might be a she.) is a wood pidgin. I did a VERY quick check over him when i first picked him up. he was pretty freaked out and i know from working in the bird section...

Hello everyone, First off I'm brand new to this site, so hello! I've rescued/rehabbed a few feral pigeons before but this is my first with a serious injury...and my first juvie. So here's her story and a couple questions for you folks. I picked her (guessing at the gender!) up yesterday...
