wild dove

Yesterday and today around noon, a mourning dove that is noticeably limping (possibly broken leg?) has been appearing in my frontyard feeding on birdseed I leave out for the mourning doves. It only appears on its own when no other doves are feeding, and is still capable of flight. Any...

Hi, I'm new to this site, as I wasn't sure where else to go for help on this matter. I found an injured Mourning Dove outside my house yesterday. I figured it was probably a little stunned and would be flying around in a couple hours and didn't want to cause unnecessary stress or further injury...

Hello, Im Jodie. My husband noticed a baby dove in our yard that has crawled under one of my hosta plants. The baby dove is not flying and the mother is still near. Do I secure this baby even thought the parents are near (both are perched on a wire) or do I leave it and observe?? I hate for...

I am a wildlife rehabber and don't have a lot of experience with adult injuries. I received a morning dove in two days ago. History that I received was that the dove showed up on someone's porch and had been there a couple of days with a bruised wing and missing all but one tail feather. I...

I live in Bozeman, MT and right now the average high temperature for the whole week is below 10 degrees Fahrenheit. I found a mourning dove earlier this evening struggling to cross a very busy road on foot. I watched as it attempted to fly several times but it couldn't. My guess is that because...

Hey, 4 days ago a beautiful white dove flew into our backyard of our flat (Dunedin, New Zealand). He has kept coming back and we feed him wild bird seed, last night he slept in our living room. Is this normal behaviour? Is there any steps we can take to ensure his wellbeing? At the moment he is...

There is a Dove in my backyard and it seems to be eating and his crop is way too full. He keeps kind of pawing at his mouth and stretching his neck out. I took a video of him. I just need somebody to tell me what I should do.

So as i was not paying attention my cat brought in a live dove/pigeon which im not sure which yet. I found it after a loud commotion when it tried to get away from my cat. There were big and small feather scattered across the dining room floor. I barely had enough time to grab a old bird cage...

We found a Rock Dove yesterday with a broken wing in a ditch near our home. It was easy to catch, bright eyes, and alert. Upon closer inspection the wing also is wounded also. Not a punture wound, Nor terribly scabby just dirty. I cleaned it with a week solution of water and iodine. We used a...

Hi, i was just wondering if doves can breed with pigeons? When i was looking for pigeons, i found doves also and just wondered if you could breed doves with pigeons! Thanks! pigeonkeeper

Hi, I have a dove that I need your help with. One of my neighbors found it after it almost got hit by a car. It looks to be an older dove (not sure how old but it is at age to feed itself). It either is missing an eye or has an infection in its one eye. It also seems to have brain damage would...

I came home today and found a cat outside my house, and when I walked up it was making strange growling sounds. After it left, I went to open the door, and I noticed a little pigeon hiding in the corner. It looked like the cat wounded the pigeon's wing and trapped it in the corner, and was...

I take a lot of care to give my utility pigeons the right feed for a balanced diet. All the feral pigeons I see in town look good and healthy. Where do they find the grain ect. they need in the midle of the city??

Hi there, Where I live people often find sick and injured birds and they drop them off here as they know I will look after them and try and make them better. Over the years we have healed a lot of birds and released them, I have only ever kept 1 as it was too injured too release but it had...

Hi everyone. I came home yesterday to find my young male white homer a bloody mess. I took him to the vet for x-rays, etc. He has a completely broken wing and the bullet went in a line through from his wing to his chest and punctured his crop so that seeds are actually coming out from the wound...

I just got a white homing pigeon and he/she has become my indoor pet along with my Ringneck Dove and two parakeets. This pigeon is adapting very well. He/She was born in January. My question is whenever he/she is around Magnum my female Dove (named because she bow-cooed and was thought to be...

Greetings everyone! I noticed a group of magpies circling Bos parent’s nest this morning, I chased them off but then I noticed another baby dove on the ground just a few steps from where I found Bo. I looks grown up only that her beak is pink not black yet. I gave her some water n put some seeds...
