20+ years ago, a neighbor who knew I did dog rescue brought me a dove they'd rescued from a flock of crows. It made sense to them. No one wanted an injured dove, so she stayed. We trained each other. At night I'd open her cage, she'd fly to the kitchen island for her evening treat of chopped nuts, fly around the house for a while, then fly back to her cage and I'd close the door. She'd fly to my lap or shoulder Smarter than I ever expected, for 15 years.
