Awww, he's so cute!!!I put Kirby on the porch this morning . It was very warm so I misted him with a spray bottle. For some reason he will not go in a bird bath but loves being sprayed. When he fluffs up while being sprayed he reminds me of a feather duster mt Grandma had.View attachment 108993View attachment 108995
I just loved the photos. I can see the fuzzy little feathers starting to grow around the head. I'm so happy the bird survived. I would have never thought of feeding him or her peas.What a beautiful bird. Kirby has character no doubt , I can see it in his face. Sweet sweet sweet
Saved a baby pigeon a few years back. 'It' grew well and manged to fly off. Started it off with frozen peas warmed up which I read on the internet. Had to get them down its throat at first but then 'it' would take from my hand and once pecking on the ground started, fed appropriate seed. Kept in greenhouse with ventilation for protection and 'it' survived.
Hands thoroughly washed every time - obviously
