Pigeon Surprise 6

What to say... it was a tragedy, yet again!

For the first 3-4 days after the little ones came to see light, they were all happily feeding and growing up etc. It was a nice sight for us all days and nights.

But on day 5 we first found both chicks on the floor, down from the pot soil. We wondered how the mother brought it down.

The very next day, one was missing suddenly. We suspected that it might have walked to close to the balcony edge where there is a gap through the grill, and probably it might have had a fatal fall all the way down from our 4th floor (level-5 actually!). But there was no way we could confirm. It was, just, missing from the scene!

And, again, the very next day, our son saw the mother grabbing the other little one and trying to fly out of the balcony grill, and, lost grip of the chick -- while on flight! The chick fell on to the balcony railing of the floor below us! But... luckily, it seemingly survived, even after that. However... a few hours later... we did not find it there. Disappeared from the scene!

That was the end of Solomon Grundy!

How sad.
