Thank you, i was so hyped to see them there like this, they are such a sweet couple.
I recognize a pattern of you being a self-righteous prick.

I don't give a shit about your politics drama, and i don't want to have anything to do with it. Please stop reposting my pictures here.

It's amazing how it is going off, so many birds coming. I think i'm really lucky in my yard with the birds. I have built another feeder, but i did not set it up last winter:
The wooden one is much nicer to watch, because the birds stay around to eat, at the lamp one really only the parakeets stay, the others grab a snack leave.
It did not show up in the last four days, but tonight it is sleeping there again. Luckily i did not remove the poo catcher yet, haha.
Lots of local "speciality" breeds. And of course not just for beauty, or athletics but also perversions like ground roller pigeons who are bred for having a severe movement disorder and only tumble in backflips across the ground instead of being able to fly. Although i guess in the eyes of the breeders this is beautiful and athletic.
Thanks for having another look after the pigeon!
Yeah i meant dovecote, as in an actual domestic pigeon house. Pretty sure that it's a breeders pigeon that got stranded. Just because it looks so unique nice golden and of course the ring. Maybe you could report the sighting to a bird / pigeon group, at least where i live, there is an active scene of people who try to secure pigeons like that.
Not sure if you know, but feral pigeons pretty much all stem from abandonded dovecotes, stranded wedding doves, lost carriers or other breeds that managed to survive and reproduce in the cities, they are not really wild animals but more like stray pets.
Poor bird. Looks like the right wing is hurt too, seems like it's hanging down. Have you seen it fly? A pigeon that is so visibly weak is usually super weak, they try real hard to hide it until they just can't anymore.
If you happen to see it again, maybe you could try to secure it and hand it over to some pigeon care / animal shelter, if you have something like that around. Or contact the carrier / pigeon breeder association and give them the ring number. Some breeders are real assholes though and don't want their "failures" back. It is probably super hungry and relatively easy to secure when you feed it.
Beak makes it look more like an adult bird to me.. Also that it apparently did not find its way back to its dovecote. Gonna be tough in the streets. But a nice looking pigeon!
Thanks, yeah i have been very happy with the feeder, i have removed it a couple weeks ago, but for the winter season i am going to build a new one like that, just a bit roomier and with more sticks to perch on towards the balcony windows.
Here's a better view of it:
Haha, i can see it!
