chartpolski 23,476 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I've reported a few pigeons I've found in the past. They are allways happy to know what happened to their birds, even if they don't get them back. Also reported a perigrene falcon I found dead,(another web site), and they sent me a full report of how it was bred, where it was released, etc. Interesting. Cheers.

ferret features 289 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 tell him to swim out n get it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
billybaltic 308 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Does it also have a rubber ring on the other leg, if so it was in a race, but it has been a while since i had anything to do with pigeon's so it maybe different now, the owner will be glad to hear what happened, but they don't alway's want them back, good luck.
