Anyone lost this? On my backstep if it's yours!

So. Just come in through my back gate to find this on my doorstep....anyone missing a pigeon? Not your average bird, well looked after, has got ring etc but bloody thing won't let me get close enough to get details.

It's currently attacking my pots in hope of food. Am assuming due to high winds been blown off course and is knackered. I have chucked some food out on back step (randomly had some milled linseed in...once a Girl Guide, always a Girl Guide Grin) and shut in Sassycat (cos that wouldn't end well...I'd be hoovering up feathers for weeks!!!)...

So...anyone think they've lost something today? Or have suggestions of what I could do with it? Confused

I have my one's number.. is it worrh checking with Gazzie's owner?

The website says to report it if they don't fly off. Looks much brighter this morning but don't know if s/he's eaten so will get some bird seed

SassynSane · 12/06/2017 07:19

Do you want to PM the number? I'll know if it's DGazzie's!

Sorry i'm a lurker usually... i didn't even know Barcode was my name!

I can't see how to PM?

SassynSane · 12/06/2017 07:38

See the 3 blue dots under my post? Click on them and it gives you range of options...one of which is to send me a PM...but actually as it's just a leg ring number then am sure it's ok to post here really....

I hadn't put a subject, have resent it

UrsulaPandress · 12/06/2017 07:52

I hate to say this, but Gazzie isn't a very good homing pigeon is she 😀

Still got my fingers crossed that she turns up.

Horsemad · 12/06/2017 07:59

OK. It's time I told you the epic journey of Princess Jane. My childhood cat.
Tabby and White Moggie.

When I left home. took her with me, she disappeared. I feared the worst.

2 months later she turned back up at my Parents old farm house.

80 Kms away

Have Hope OP ((((((((Hugs))))))))))
