Introduction to Pigeon Care

🕊️ 

 Are you passionate about helping pigeons but not sure where to start?

Pigeons are often hugely underrated. By far one of my favourite types of birds to care for, there’s plenty of little hints and tips that I’ve discovered in the 10 years I’ve been rehabilitating pigeons. 

 

This 6 module course will guide you through the key steps of caring for pigeons, from safe rescue and admission to feeding, housing, and release, all designed to help you provide ethical, legal, and effective care.

 Each module includes:

 🎥 Video presentations

📚 Reference materials and reading lists
🧩 Downloadable templates and checklists
🧠 A short quiz to reinforce learning
