Re: [MickaCoo] [Mickaboo Discuss] Birdness is booming!
by Elizabeth Young 25 Aug '11

25 Aug '11

I was contacted by an SF couple whose neighbor had rescued Jenny the fledgling pigeon <http://www.rescuereport.org/2011/08/jenny.html> from three boys who had caught her (details below). If she had the possibility of being releasable, she would have been routed to wildlife rescue and rehab (MickaCoo believes that if a pigeon can be free, it should be free) but, because Jenny is blind, she will stay in MickaCoo foster care until she is placed in a forever home. Our neighbor, who saved Jenny and brought her to us, told me today that Jenny had been flying low over the sidewalk and one of three boys grabbed her out of the air and threw her to the ground. They kicked at her a couple times before our neighbor chased them off. I am so glad Anna saw what happened and put a stop to it.
