I can't seem to read the first bit of the post - the photo of the chicks is over the top! Glad someone has offered to look after them for you - It can be quite a task to look after and feed baby birds! People ask us at work occasionally what to do with injured animals and we always refer them to the RSPCA or other rescue groups such as wild swan, hedgehog, badger etc. I work for a County Wildlife Trust. Regarding peoples views of pigeons being vermin - we, us humans have created the ideal situation for them, just like with rats. We provide cosy habitats and plenty of food in the form of rubbish especially food waste - they, being generalists have taken advantage of us humans and thrived! Kate
