Leaving the nest

This little fella has been in the garden all day. At first I thought he was sick, but apparently he is a fledgling pigeon and he hasn't grown all his feathers yet. He can't fly far and flew into the kitchen window. I was only about 3 feet away from him when I took this photo. Hopefully tomorrow he will be strong enough to move on. I am not a pigeon fan!
beautiful shot, hope he gets his feathers soon :-)

Great picture. He does look a little strange without his feathers.

He looks a bit confused as well. Great focus, Calx

Great close up! Doesn't look quite finished yet, does he?

My cardinals are looking frazzled right now too....the males look worse than the females.....

He is quite ugly, but I'm hoping you got his bad side! :P Interesting shot though.
