This bugger just won't give up, I don't wish that fate on any bird but why is it the dozen or more feral pigeons that are on my loft every day never get caught nor do the orsorans in the loft that wouldn't be missed Now today I was helping our brother Rob move a shed from our neighbours garden round to our Mums. It's a big shed with 4 side panels, 2 end panels, 4 roof panels and various other bits so my neighbour said we could use his Motorcycle trailer to take it round on. As he is building a new shed/garage his trailer is currently under a tarpaulin in his garden, when Dave lifted the tarpaulin he said there's one of your pigeons under here !!! I couldn't believe it, it was my blue hen. She was reluctant to be caught but it was obvious that she couldn't fly, eventually we managed to catch her. The poor thing has had a big chunk of her neck and right shoulder eaten away which is obviously why she can't fly and few broken wing feathers, she is back safely in the loft and this evening was cooing to her mate in the nest bowl. I hope she will recover ok but wouldn't be surprised the shock of it all proves too much for her I'm a day or two. Anyway she is safe and warm tonight so fingers crossed
