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.
