My story

Courageous, shown here showing off his Super pigeon pants (Flypers), is all white with a grey ring in his eyes. Small but mighty with a very sweet disposition. He learns everyday and likes his snuggles. Named after his personality and the street that he was rescued on. This adventurous little guy is ready to settle into a forever home with his own new adventures ahead. His & his friends rescue is a cautionary tale of an inhumane release done by a well meaning person. They were raised for squab, bought from a butcher and released, they were unable to feed themselves, drink or know that they could fly. At least 5 were released, one was killed by a predator & we rescued the surviving 4 10/7/19. Despite seeming to thrive, one, Aurora, passed away unexpectedly in the night 3 weeks after rescue. Everyone else is doing well and getting stronger everyday.Please apply to adopt http://www.pigeonrescue.org/birds/apply-to-foster-or-adopt/
