Resources
Coming soon...
We're still working on getting our first resources ready to publish.
Eventually we hope to create a library of pigeon information and educational material.
If you would like to contribute your writing to our resources project, please email coo@pigeon.scot
Rehabbers & Rescues
See the map below showing the areas covered by pigeon-friendly wildlife rescues and our pigeon rehabbers. There is further information after the map about each rehabber/rescue. If you know of any other help not already on our map, please get in contact!
* Please note - Contact information for individual rehabbers will only be shared privately to finders of injured/sick birds directly. We ask that you do not share these details with others for the safety and privacy of our rehabbers.
** Not all wildlife rescues will treat every injury/illness the same - please consult with a rehabber or PPS Admin before transporting a pigeon to a rescue unless you already know their policies.
