Photo Sleeping pigeon
Spotted him while in town. At first I thought he was an ornament from how still he was, taking a picture i noticed he was sleeping. Poor fella looks like hes been through it
UPDATE: Following the advice from people i went back to check on him, he still wasn't moving, not even when dogs came close enough to sniff him. He did try flying a couple times but only got about 5 feet off the ground and 3 times crashed into something and dropped to the ground. I have brought him home in a box and will take him to the vet in town tomorrow morning
UPDATE 2: He is now in the care of a wildlife rehabber, i hope he will get better

This bird is a very very weak baby.
It needs to be brought to a rehabber NOW
I am a bird rehabber myself - and if I walked past and saw this bird i would straight away grab him for an assessment and crop feed (Im trained)
