Some people call them flying rats, other wax lyrically about them. I just felt sorry for this little one. He stood and walked funny because he was missing most of his toes. It gave him a certain air though, a certain elegance and he didn't mind posing for me!

Aww.. poor little guy. Pigeons get a bad wrap. Great shot of him.
ReplyDeletePretty birdie...I like birdies:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteWow, I used to drive a large delivery truck, I can't imagine driving a tour bus! I am always in awe of drivers who drive vehicles larger than a house.
That pigeon is still hanging in there. We get mostly large crows hanging about here.
They aren't the best liked bird around but I do think they have gloriously colored feathers.
ReplyDeleteSo glad he posed for you.
Thanks for your visit and yes, my post was a turkey and they do fly if they really need to. I was surprised the baby could already fly.
Poor little guy. They are so pretty. Their feathers *shine*. Too bad they get such a bad rap.
ReplyDeleteThat is sad.
ReplyDeleteHe seems to be well fed though.
