Love the name Svistulka and I think you should be proud of your nuturing, s/he is a lovely healthy looking bird :)
They're quite attractive birds too, when they're not too scabby...
Incredible you managed to keep him alive. I've never had any luck and the last one I found left after a cat mauling I put out of its misery. Well done.
And now, if I fail to teach him to get out, he's stuck with me forever. Also, I'm not sure, whether I want him to get out, because pigeon lifespan in a city is really short.
Although you have done a very nice thing, I have been concerned about Musa's point of view. Did she have anything to say about a pigeon moving in?
Well done, he/she turned into a gorgeous bird.
And the photo with Musa is so funny!
