Lost and found

Between Nick and Caleb, the missing baby pigeon was found today – dead, under the cupboard in the workshop. Nick’s nose led him to it. We don’t know what the cause of death was, but I would speculate that it was malnutrition. We’ve seen another baby pigeon, quite likely the sibling of ours, in our backyard. Although it can fly, it still wanders around after the same mother bird, wanting to be fed. I thought it was only in the human race that when a child leaves the nest to fly on its own, and can fend for itself, it still comes back for meals!
