Pigeons.
Oh yes, they will be mine.
I love pigeons. Oh, I know people refer to them as "rats of the air", but I can't help it. I've always liked pigeons. The idea of having a little flock of pigeons wheeling across the skies, coming home to roost in a dove cote of my very own, is intoxicating.
Yeah, maybe I do need to get out more.
But still, I heart pigeons. I love their sounds. I love their colors, their intelligent eyes, the way they move through the air. (They also are pretty tasty, when it comes down to it.)
This week, I hope to get a couple of things in place so that come Saturday, if I have any small amount of luck, I can head to a local small animal swap with some spare baby rabbits and come home with a few pigeons. Its been a fun couple of months, reading about pigeons, watching YouTube instructional videos, attempting to contact the local reps for pigeon fanciers groups. I feel ready to jump into a new project...maybe. Well, yes, yes I am ready. OH, I do love a new grand adventure in the making!
Cooing, lovely, iridescent colored pigeons. I can't wait to try my hand at keeping a small flock!
We have pigeons all over the place over here..sadl they annoy me more than anything. I DO love their sound though. We also have very pretty pigeons that you can cleary tell that are owned by someone. They also have annual pigeon races and can see how a person can get hooked on that :)
