Found a wounded pigeon. Might have been shot or had by a dog/cat possibly. It's got quite a big nasty hole at the top of the wings behind it's neck, and another in it's side . One wing doesn't work so the muscle might be torn, I wouldn't be surprised having seen that hole . Poor bugger.
Washed the hole and side as best I can and bandaged round the wing and body to stop it treading on the wing which it keeps doing. If it dies at least it'll be quieter and more peaceful than getting nommed by a cat or blatted about in the road by a car or something.
I put it in the rabbit run with a big tub propped up to hide inside, some straw in there to rest on, and water and birdseed just in case it does recover somewhat .
