We had a pet pigeon that got lost. But this is the story. In the afternoon of December 24, 2007, a pigeon came knocking on our doorstep. We gave it some rice. And while feeding, our housemaid caught the pigeon. After inspecting the bird, we let it loose since it is getting late in the afternoon. On Christmas day, we were surprised to see that pigeon again. Again, we gave it food. To make the story short, that pigeon became our pet. We named her Twinkle. She stayed inside our house and had made a nest on the second floor.
After 5 years with us, she suddenly left without warning. It was a bright morning when she got out of the house to peck on the front yard grounds. My husband was also there and I was in the terrace. She flew to the roof as she normally does. But then we saw her flying away. My husband ran out to the street and search for Twinkle. She was gone. And we were really saddened by her leaving us.
