What kind of pigeon is this?

[hurdml]

I found this pigeon a month ago unable to fly. Someting had pulled out all of its tail feathers. The feathers are growing back quite rapidly. I'd planned on releading the bird once it could fly, but would like to be sure it was a wild bird, not a pet that had escaped. Can anyonemidenify the type od pigeon from these photos?

Hi and a warm welcome aboard from the staff and moderators. I hope you enjoy yourself with us.

You might wish to try our ID forum if you get no luck here but my guess is someone will answer your question soon.

Hello and welcome.
It looks like a feral Pigeon (Columba livia) to me but I leave it to some US experts.
