Irradiated? You want them to glow in the dark?

According to Richard Dawkins they evolved the cowboy hats as an adaptation to the sunny climate.

radiation will sterilize them, right?

Gotta watch that autocorrect.

It gets me all the time.

Pard anytime you want to talk radiation let me know. Auto correct or eradicate. Cowboy hats on pigeons ain’t sh*t compared to what this country is going through.

It would probably be more stressful on the birds to be captured by two looney human females who intend to clip the hats off the birds’ heads than it would be to let nature take its course through gradual molting of the feathers.
Quite possibly they are domestic and return to their dovecote to roost every night. If not, they’ve been caught once, leave them alone.

The one on the right has a nice Clint Eastwood vibe about him.

I wouldn’t worry about the hats. The tiny pistols might be a problem, pigeons always hit what they aim for.

We do not condone breeding."

Breeding is the thing all birds live for. Their whole life is dedicated to it, it dictates their physical appearance, their range and their song; it is their source of joy, their mission from God, their single greatest ambition. And these gals call themselves a 'rescue' when they want to 'rescue' them from their purpose in life. Nice sweaters you have there, ladies- it'd be a shame if someone sh!t on them.

Where does one buy pigeon hats, and are they available in black, ‘cause that’s always stylish.

Right here, in black:

The song was written by Willie Nelson, what’s the most popular version was a Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson duet.

"I wanna know if they actually have cattle."

If they've got cowboy hats, then they have to own a horse, so the question is, why fly when they can ride?

Went to a funeral today for an old cowboy born in 1931, passed away the 1st of Dec this year. A very great American. A rancher raised sheep, cows, dogs in grizzlies country along with horse., the Idaho side of the Rockies. 88years, must have been close to 500 people there to say good by. Bill was a damn good man. Folks get fairly close even if they don’t get along all the time. A neighbor needs help you go, next thing you know it’s back at ya. Bill’s stories will be missed, 80 years with sheep and cows in grizzly country tends to add a little sand to your stance. The folks that turned out for the funeral were young, older, middle aged, and 68 and older like me. I wish I could call Bill about pigeons in Cowboy hats he would have got a kick out of it. RIP My Friend.

I’m sure Bill would have enjoyed you telling him. What a privilege to have been his friend. I enjoyed reading about Bill, and hope your good memories comfort you when you miss him.

Your friend sounds like one hell of a guy, I can understand missing him. I’m 73 from Texas so I’ve known a few Cowboys myself. Great people all of them!
