Is Pepi ready for freedom?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We’ve been patching up Pepi the pigeon since he was brought in with an injured wing and leg a couple of weeks ago.   He’s been a model patient and let us treat his wounds without being stressed.   We’ve loved having him around – he’s such a beautiful bird.   He’s nearly healed up now and has proved he can fly when we let him out for a trial in one of the pens.   He was straight up to the roof!    Just another couple of days of food and fattening up and then we’ll let him go.   Will he be alright?   Freedom and flight means everything to a bird – it’s a chance we’ll have to take.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

His wing is healed, his foot too.  Just one more day to make sure ……….
