Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, Roseville, http://www.wrcmn.org/ ----- Original Message -----=20 From: leo...@aol.com=20 To: mou-...@cbs.umn.edu=20 Sent: Thursday, March 16, 2006 9:52 PM 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! -Leo WM ------=_NextPart_000_0040_01C64948.7E061A80 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2900.2802" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY id=3Drole_body style=3D"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: #000000; = FONT-FAMILY: Arial"=20 bottomMargin=3D7 bgColor=3D#ffffff leftMargin=3D7 topMargin=3D7 = rightMargin=3D7> <DIV><FONT face=3D"Times New Roman" size=3D3>Wildlife Rehabilitation = Center,=20 Roseville, <A=20 href=3D"http://www.wrcmn.org/">http://www.wrcmn.org/</A></FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=3Dltr=20 style=3D"PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; = BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style=3D"FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV=20 style=3D"BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: = black"><B>From:</B>=20 <A title=3dleo...@aol.com = href=3D"mailto:leo...@aol.com">leo...@aol.com</A> </DIV> <DIV style=3D"FONT: 10pt arial"><B>To:</B> <A = title=3dmou-...@cbs.umn.edu=20 href=3D"mailto:mou-...@cbs.umn.edu">mou-...@cbs.umn.edu</A> </DIV> <DIV style=3D"FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Sent:</B> Thursday, March 16, 2006 = 9:52=20 PM</DIV> <DIV style=3D"FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [mou] Dilemma</DIV> <DIV><BR></DIV><FONT id=3Drole_document face=3DArial color=3D#000000 = size=3D2> <DIV>Hello birdwatchers,</DIV> <DIV>I'm writing because we have a bird dilemma.
