threegardeners's blog: Just some stuff.

Posted on Jul 9, 2012 7:09 PM

Its been an interesting week. I've been fighting a cold forever it seems. I found out that I have gall stones...which is why certain foods all of a sudden hate me. I need to get them removed, just have to find out how much recuperation time is needed so I know how many vacation days to save up...we get one vacation day for every 11 days we work.

There's been  little white pigeon with a pink sheen on her throat hanging around the coops the last couple of days. She perches herself either on top of the coop or just outside of the coop where the perches stick outside of the coop. I took the below pic through the coop...it looks like she is in the coop but she's not. I hope she hangs around, she's a cutie. Hubby leaves the door to the shingle shack open all day just in case she decides to wander in :) We think she might be a Homing Pigeon that got lost.

A friend of ours is taking care of someone's Siberian Red-Breasted Geese. They're super colourful, about the size of a large duck. He's keeping them in a dog kennel...apparently they don't fly.

Sadly, I have to report that JJ, my wild pigeon Jack's, only offspring died the other night. Hubby says that's the thing with pigeons, they just die for no obviously apparent reason. All of the pigeon people out here say the same thing. Sucks though...I think I'll stop giving the pigeons names...
