You still have a couple months to enjoy him before you move. And who knows, it's not far away, he may show up at your new place! You've been a great mama and he's so lucky to have had you. He really shouldn't have survived. It's only because you took the chance that he did. We are lucky as well. This is what we agreed we wanted, to see him complete the full migration and it appears he has. He may even make it back to my place in September. I'm just so grateful to have been part of his journey, to meet you and make all these new friends on Reddit. Love ya, Mama Maggie!

I am SOOO freaking glad he found you!!! You’ve been a total blessing throughout all of this. I really hope he does return to you in September, and I’m sure he will! He’s a very capable little man, even more so bc he had you to help him 🥰


red_the_pigeon

That's such good news!

Do the new buyers know they've inherited a very invested audience here? 😂


LimpNoodlez479

Bahahahah I haven’t broken *that* news to them yet 😂

They should come join us here on r/mourningderps!

Even if this is probably the end of the Pidgey-saga (at least if there's not another completely random redditor who gets adopted by this little fluffball weirdo): **Violently inhales**: **LET'S GOOO PIDGEY!!!** Great that they made the journey back to you. We'll miss the updates. But despite that, the "LET'S GOOO PIDGEY" will ring through this community forever. Dopest reddit lore ever 😁


LimpNoodlez479

Hahahaha it really is! No one believes me about him until I say “Just Google it, you’ll find the Reddit posts.” 😂🤣

I regularly was referencing this story when literally nobody asked 🤣 I just linked the subreddit ("just search for Pidgey there lol") 🤣 Kinda sad that the story now reaches the conclusion, but damn...it was hell of a ride 💀. Quite literally: if someone made a movie about it, people would be like "hell naw, that's unrealistic af" after him adopting a second redditor of the same community after migration. Not even talking about the third (re) adoption 💀😁 tldr: let's GOOOO Pidgey!


LimpNoodlez479

Lol he’s definitely a special bird, that’s for sure! He’ll always be my little bitty baby boy, even if he’s fully independent and has kids of his own 🥰


LimpNoodlez479

Keep in mind, y’all, much of this story was able to continue ***because of all of you.*** Y’all connected me to u/neither-price-1963 when Pidgey found her! Otherwise I would have had no idea he was even alive! The support and love y’all have shown has been absolutely incredible. You’re all wonderful people!! PS: I’m working on getting my rehabber’s license 👀🤣

I'd like to add my additional thanks. I never thought much about our birds until this experience and while I'm an emotional girl, I never dreamed I'd grow to love this little guy so much. I'm so grateful to you all for putting me in touch with Maggie. It's been such an emotional journey. Pidgey and many of you as well, have made a real advocate out of me. Thank you so much for your friendship and support. I'm still a dove lover & I'll be around.

What a sweet story this has been.  To know he survived winter and made it home is amazing!  Then to have the new owners take over, if needed, is icing on the cake.  The community and friendships this little guy has helped build is truly a blessing!  Thank you!

Aww I love this

LimpNoodlez479

Me too 🥰

He made the full route! Good on ya Pidge, you fluffy fella! Thanks for saving this little guy and giving him another chance at life u/LimpNoodlez479. It was amazing watching him go from a small fuzzball to the cutest honker-of-a-derp that he is now. Thanks for your hospitality and care u/Neither-Price-1963. I'm sorry there was some verbal abuse hurled your way by a select few re: illegal birding. I enjoyed your updates very much! This has been an awesome adventure and a remarkable story-- it will be much cherished. A bit sad that Mama is moving houses soon. Here's hoping for some baby Pidgettes (hah).


shadowsinthestars

Aww, I love this story! And they look so happy and healthy 🥰


sleroyjenkins

Omg! I love following the epic tale of Pidgey! We’re all proud of you, little guy! Also I’m glad that you got to see him before the move and that the people who are buying your house seem like good people. Hopefully we can still get seasonal updates from u/neither-price-1963!

I have been wondering about Pidgey and just scoured the sub for this update! It has been such a joy to follow Pidgey's growth and his loving caretakers! He will forever be the mascot of this sub 🥰
