I always walk past pigeons with some extra distance to make them feel safe. Or any animal, it's just that I encounter pigeons the most.

I rescued a bird that was unable to fly and I would do so again. But now I know that my local shelter will accept them and I will not attempt to foster them myself again.

**Please don't just grab wild birds (or any animal for that matter) off the street but take some time to observe them first. If they struggle to fly/walk, look like they're under weight, cold or have visible injuries, then catching them is usually warranted.
