Pigeon Talk

[h2oratt]

I'm old enough but didn't know it. What a fun song!

I still sing it to this day. When I am out walking. My dad is a musician. We heard a lot of music.

Found the pictures! I would totally also thought something was wrong with it
It is a very pretty bird though.

I have chickens , so I thought it had a wry neck. When I first found it I thought it was a miniature peacock.

Oh my goodness! No I've never heard that song.

Poor little pigeon! I would hold him and kiss him and love him and call his name . . . um let me think. I don't like the name George

luv it! He/it/whatever is striking
Wish he had walked his little feathered butt to Missouri I'd have to keep him

@shawluvsbirds you should get some red ash spread fantails! They would be light gray. First pic has red ash spread View attachment 1666340

Like @shawluvsbirds , I'm not a huge fan of "red" colored birds either, but I really have grown to like it on pigeons!

Is that enough pics @WVduckchick ?

Enough??? Welllll now..... "enough" is a relative term.

I've been studying color genetics a little, but I'm still not sure how black comes in.

 

[h2oratt]

Name him Robin!

Good idea!

 

[h2oratt]

Too bad he doesn’t have a red breast.

 

[h2oratt]

Is it Permethryn?

No, spinosad.

 

[biophiliac]

No, spinosad.
