Pox by gaf005

Pox

I don't normally look closely at pigeons but it was intriguing to see several with wart-like growths on their beaks like this. It's evident it is a disease called 'Avian Pox' and the scabs fall off after 2-4 weeks leaving a scar but not harming the bird, unless they have prevented it from feeding.
Oh dear poor chap.

Wow, super close up, poor guy, I hope this falls off soon and he is fine.
