Hi:
In Auburn Bob& Karen Campbell  had a white Pigeon/Dove arrive at their home=
 on 26May.
Bob hopes that someone will recognize the bird or suggest who it may belong=
 to in NS or elsewhere.
Several photos are available including one of part of the leg band.  =20
I have suggested:
1. use binoculars or scope to obtain details from the band;
2. contacting DNR who may capture it and make decisions based upon the info=
rmation on the band.
On Monday morning the bird got Bob's attention by pecking on the window in =
his computer room. Since then the bird spends the day in their yard, where =
it goes at night is unknown but it has been on the window sill or deck each=
 morning.
Bob has provided cracked corn, etc, & water which, on the first day, the bi=
rd consumed in a manner suggesting it was very hungry. I recall about 24 ho=
urs of above average wind speed, from the SW gusting to 50kph last weekend.
The bird is somewhat trusting of Bob but not to a point where he might pick=
 it up.
Suggestions are welcome.
Cheers, Pat
