Strange outing....

[alscalls]

My wife and I went for a drive to take photos of whatever and.....
We saw some turkeys

then we got to my buddies farm and the gate was open so I closed it

the bilding on the left.........right beside it is where we parked the truck to close the gate when we had a visitor....

This thing was wearing a band on each leg and would not leave me alone.....
It would fly up and then come back...


When we tried to leave......it followed....

I cold not see the dark green band markings
The light green one said...
DC
AU 2008 407
Then it took a crap on the truck while I was talking to it and flew away It flew back and fourth to the truck three or four times like this It was strange.

I did a search on the numbers and I think it is a racing pigeon.......But I cant find the right band # to see where it is from.

Grab a hold of him and read em  Al

I was trying to but he would stay just far enough away, I coulnt and the camera made him walk farther away.

Did that pigeon initiate a new vehicle Al??

No jim I am still working on that one

That's pretty cool Al.  I had one sitting on my doorstep when I got home a bunch of years back.  He kinda adopted me for the night and spent most of it sitting on a shotgun barrel on my kitchen sink.

I talked to a guy at a pigeon club today that said the bird is probably from DC and it is a race bird and to just wait and see if he goes on his way.

...and if ya wait too long...he'll taste like chicken
