We had a pigeon with a black band on it's leg show up the other day. It was hanging around the house. No idea where it came from although we suspect it may have escaped an animal auction nearby that occurs twice a year.

Anyway it's quite tame and sits on my deck bannister or the roof all day and then roosts above the window air conditioner on my parents apartment during the night. My dog wants it bad!

So yesterday we put it into a cage and took it over to an Amish friend that lives a good 20 miles away. He has pet pigeons in his barn that come and go. That was yesterday evening. Today he's back here again.

I'm concerned either the dog or a hawk is going to nail him. I know that's the way of nature but we're not sure what to do. Any ideas?

I'll take pics as soon as my new camera battery charges.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
