Said uncle, incidentally, especially for the anti-military contigent,
is a retired career Marine. I think compassion is one of the best attributes in man. :-) My Dh is an old softie from way back. The guys at his job once tore down a pigeon nest, and tossed the two baby, featherless pigeons in a dumpster. He got them out and brought them home. I raised them and we released them (which is a hoot of a story in itself, they kept coming back home).....Their names were Blackie and Brownie, but DH kept pretending he didn't like them and always called them Beavis & Butthead. He also claims when we're in mixed company he only brought them home for Yoda, and I took them away from him :-) Sherry |

The softie in my house is definitely my spouse. I hate pigeons, almost as
much as my cats hate blue jays. To me they are just rats with feathers. Probably have a place in nature, but not in my front yard. Part of the reason I shelled out the money to have our palm tree pruned and razored was to get rid of what had become a pigeon roost. In the process, a nest with one squab was knocked down. The tree guys were apologetic and set it aside carefully. I'd have been quite happy the euthanize it, but after lots of fuss about the poor parent pigeons, Charlie took the baby to friend that does rescues and she hand raised it.
