LOOK AT MY BOY. HIS NAME IS GRIFFIN
I found him on my way home from Prague he couldn't fly and all his tail feathers were ripped out so I took him home. it was quite something trying to find a box in nearby shop, then getting one without the bottom holding together, sticking it together with pigeon stickers from my bag and then an almost 2 hour bus ride home. My family immediately fell in love with him and we took him to the vet. His wing isn't broken but the vet said we should keep him for minimum of 3 months (we're keeping him forever).
Snart now has a son :D
Snarts son (the placeholder is Snart jr) needs a name

Pigeons are actually pretty, imo. Yeah even the grey ones you see around the bus stop. The "sky rats". They are just common (in many places at least i guess) so we don't really care, but... A big variety of spotted patern? Some of them legit remind me of seashells? Some of them are dark grey, light grey, white, and sometimes even brown ? They have green and violet shiny necks? (my favorite are the white and brown ones with mainly violet necks and a bit of green) Red legs? Kind of cute actually? You do you but i think pigeons are cool actually!

The post about angel wings not needing to be purely white to be beautiful reminded me of a picture I LOVE
This pigeon is an angel
I could've sworn I've posted this here before.
I'm so confused with many places to post things.
wow birds sure do have names! Here's some of society's favorites:
Cardinal
Blue jay
Hawk
Sparrow
Eagle
In comparison here are some of my favourite bird names:
Dickcissel
Tufted Titmouse
Wall creeper
Pyrrhuloxia
Emu
That last one is mostly a dedication to my friend @i-may-be-an-emu but emu is still a neat and silly name anyway so it works.
