Thank you for sharing this, Sarah. There are also pigeons and a dove at SJACS that are even more at risk as well as several young King pigeons at SFACC that are living on borrowed time. MickaCoo Pigeon & Dove Rescue is overfull and I'm personally stretched to the breaking point trying to keep it all together. We cannot take any more birds at this time.
There is a lonesome Diamond Dove at PHS that has a wonderful home waiting for him with Francie Waller in Alta if anyone is headed up that way.
And I'm really concerned about the fact that none of the South Bay animal shelters, not HSSV, SJACS nor SVACA place birds! Any birds that arrive in those shelters must be rescued or they are killed. How is it possible that one of the most community-minded, financially-thriving regions in the country accepts ZERO civic responsibility for homeless pet birds? (Other shelters, such as PHS, SFACC, HACS, MHS do place birds.) Does anyone have the bandwidth to pursue this with South Bay leaders?
