Wow!! What a great shot.

That's amazing - well done.

great capture, by you and the bird. not so great for the pigeon though. I heard that when ringing a juvenile in a nest in the Avon Gorge, the rangers found a whole load of rings from racing pigeons.

Nice capture for both of you; looks like an immature--glad to see that it is being successful; the pigeon is probably headless, so it is good to have it turned away.
