When pigeons are really happy they twitch their wings, particularly when their partner is giving them attention. He sees me as his big.pigeon wife basically
With Pat starting to enjoy more free roaming time, I had to but him a pair of pants so he doesn't poo everywhere! Doesn't he look handsome? #patthepigeon #pigeonpants #flyper #rescuepigeon #pmvpigeon #happybird #tinyhome #tinyhomwithbirds #rvlifewithbirds #pigeonsmakegreatpets #microsanctuary #animalsanctuary #microsanctuarylife https://www.instagram.com/p/CEXTQ_XpaKS/?igshid=1jm9asmu9bwdz
Baby girl has been named "Go" by my human offspring, because I told him that she'll go back to her friends after she has recovered 👀 ❤️ #rescuepigeonsofinstagram #rescuepigeon #rescuepigeons #rescuepigeonsofkarachi #karachi #pakistan https://www.instagram.com/p/ByMwLoSArRe/?igshid=1u7p8zvhh5fhf

It's really hot in #Vegas! The rescue animals are suffering the heat along with the humans! It's 114⁰ outside and 97⁰ inside. The R-value of a camper SUCKS. It's the only time I don't enjoy the RV life. . #rvlife #rvlifewithbirds #rvlivewithdogs #tinyhome #microsanctuarymovement #animalsanctuary #rescuepigeon #hotdog #desertlife #veganfortheanimals #idonteatanimalsbecauseidonteatmyfriends (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCjtcHfJZLi/?igshid=19cbmx14ekaap

This stunning girl is a wild #pigeon. She was rescued by two amazing women earlier today. She looks really, really sick: both legs paralysed, but she has a ton of spunk! For now, I have crop-fed her diluted baby bird handfeeding formula to prevent dehydration; she took 20 ml. And I've started her on a broad-spectrum avian antibiotic. She might not make it, because the thing with birds such as parrots and pigeons is that they're prey for larger birds of prey such as kites and hawks. As such, they're biologically programmed to hide any and all signs of illness until they're too weak to keep up the charade. By the time symptoms actually start showing -- especially with symptoms as severe as paralysis -- it is often too late. But we're going to give this girl our best, and keep our fingers crossed. I've placed her in the smallest cage I have so she doesn't need to move around too much to access food and water. Food-wise, I've left her with kangni (canary seeds), which are great for calories and building strength; and a bowl of fresh water with ORS to replenish electrolytes. Tomorrow morning, I'll give her some diced, boiled eggs. And then we'll see how it goes. It is her bedtime now: I've covered her little crate so she gets some rest, and placed her crate in quarantine in our bedroom next to one of our baywindows. 🤞 ♥️ #rescuepigeonsofinstagram #rescuepigeon #rescuepigeons #rescuepigeonsofkarachi #karachi #pakistan https://www.instagram.com/p/ByLSu9pngWg/?igshid=ttttltss30wl
UPDATE: Pat the rescue pigeon has been doing pretty well.. he is still showing signs of the virus, like in this video of him twisting his head. He is getting better at eating and drinking on his own, but I am still hand feeding him frozen peas and corn 2x a day with some supplement from the vet sprinkled on top. His weight has gone up from 333g to 345g. At this point, we are thinking he will survive, but he may not be releasable back to the wild. Fingers crossed for Pat!
New Pigeon rescue! Meet Pat, found with a broken hip and rehabbed at a local wildlife rescue. Pat can't fly yet but hopefully he can learn to be a Free Bird!
Pat has been gaining weight and has been eating and drinking on his own! This is the last of the medicine and hopefully his last force feeding thawed out frozen peas and corn.
Giving Pat a little morning enrichment. The strange behaviors continue. Online research says it may be a neurological virus. Vet appointment in a couple days.
