You found these in your garden? Do you eat them?

He or she will probably  think they are a cocktil or a cocktail  if you leave them together long enough. If it doesn't  work out you could always have a pigeon  pie.

Penguins can't fly. What you might have found was a young lad who was all "decked-out" in a tux and got separated from a wedding party. Don't keep him for too long. Eventually the parents will go looking for him! The Bobbies too!

Dennis this reminds me of a Sunday morning when I was on my way to church and I saw a pigeon lying on the side of the road while car tires were whizzing  along side it and the fear in that poor birds eyes! When I arrived home 3 hours later the bird had not moved. I placed the bird inside a shoe box with paper towels, bread and water and set the box with the bird among some branches in my back yard. Unfortunately a few hours later the bird died.  I was sad that I was unable to save the bird but a little relieved knowing that it must of had some relief and comfort dying peacefully perched amongst the branches and leaves of a tree instead of dying in fear on the side of a busy road. I hope the pigeon makes a full recovery Dennis but if it doesn't at least you know you did your best.

Epsom salt is a great root stimulator. Try feeding "it" a couple of dashes with it's meals. If all else fails, try running some on the base of the tail.....

I guess pigeons can regrow their tail feathers and some can fly without them. I'm not sure if I would keep it with healhy birds ,but maybe near so it sees how to fly but not too close incase the pigeon is ill! Good luck anyway!

Hector when did you learn 'Pidgin English, or is it Penquin English. :)
