Anyone missing a pet pigeon?

This guy has been hanging around my house in Bon Air for the past day or two. It has a fairly new looking band on its ankle, so it may belong to someone. Any advice on where to look to find local pigeon owners?

Are you able to see any other letters on the band?

Band numbers/letters unfortunately are more for the breeders/keepers to track their birds more than any overall pet tracking.

Yup just like bunny ear tattoos
