  Subject: [mou] Dilemma


  Hello birdwatchers,
  I'm writing because we have a bird dilemma. We showed up at our door =
two days ago at around 6:30 pm and found a pigeon with a broken wing on =
our stoop. It crouched up in the corner and stayed as we walked past it =
to open the door. We felt bad and brought it some birdseed to eat. A =
while later, almost all the seed was gone. It curls up in the corner of =
our stoop when we're not there. Last night during the big snow storm, we =
figured it was a goner, but today I looked out the porch and saw it just =
outside our door, looking fine.
  As of right now, 9:48 pm, he's still sitting there. So, our dilemma is =
what to do. Should we try to catch it and bring it somewhere? Should we =
let it be and feel bad? Is there some place that could help us out with =
it? Or is a pigeon not important enough for the attention of a bone =
mender.

  So, that's it. We're trying to decide what to do with him. I just =
figured someone here might have some ideas. I'll tell you something =
surprising though, a pigeon looks alot cuter and sweeter when it's =
curled up on your porch then when it's scarfing down birdseed at the =
bird feeder.
  Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!
