This is a follow-up to a post back in July. I had to go look it up. I posted on July 17. It was about the pigeons entrappolati inside the Comune building across from our house. At that point the pigeons had been trapped inside the building for five days. That means it’s been exactly a month since then. Of course, all the pigeons inside have died by now. But I was amazed that at least two lasted more than two weeks. I tried to get them rescued but it never worked out. I’ve moved on. But not so this guy.
He sits on that windowsill all day, every day. Waiting for his mate who has died inside. Of course he doesn’t know she has died. He just knows she’s inside. I looked up pigeon mating habits and, much to my surprise, I found out that they mate for life. 😢 I feel so sorry for this guy. I hope he moves on soon. I have been an unwilling spectator to this whole drama.
Thank you – I guess it’s part of the cycle. But a creature who is so obviously hurting makes my heart hurt too.
How sad you have to see this.
He is only a pigeon. But he obviously has feelings. So yes. It’s sad. Thanks for caring. 😢
Tremendous sadness
It has been heartbreaking to watch this for month. I didn’t choose to but it is just outside my living room window. 😢
It is. 😢
Heartbreaking….
Sad 😢
