a small thing.
I convinced my parents to shelter a grounded baby pigeon we found in our flowerbed, moving it to the balcony just outside their bedroom window.
We later spotted the mother feeding it on the balcony and it's since learned to fly. It's the second time I've found a grounded pigeon chick around here, the last one was a few years ago with a hurt wing, we took it to the vet's. You wouldn't tell they were pigeons to look at them, the babies are fantastically ugly birds - the yellow down looks like it's been stuck on for a joke. I had no idea what it was until the vet told us.
On a different subject, a belated thanks to naomiii for being so lovely. More on that later!
