To kill or not to kill?

Give it a furneral like in Star Trek when Spock died and send it into space.

/nerd mode.

He was technically in space when he died and placed in a mk VI torpedo tube and fired onto the Genesis planet.

Excellent idea though. You could spray a plastic lunch box black and write Mk VI on it in red marker pen before firing the pigeon into the void.
 
Note to everyone: You can take any wild animal to any vet and they legally must treat it.

Sounds like it was too late for this pigeon though.
 
If its a wood pigeon and looks healthy from the woods, kill it, pluck it, take the insides out cut wings off, cut neck off and you have a perfectly good pigeon breasts. :)
 
In regards to it disappearing, apparently sometimes they can get stunned if they hit something, but recover after an amount of time - I've seen other birds hit our kitchen windows a few times, once it sat around a bit, then flew off, another time it just lay on the ground :(

Yep, wood pigeon is very nice, the breast meat of a woodie is a delicacy. I shoot them very often, the pigeons you see in towns are feral birds (rats with wings) i love shooting woodies over decoys, i used to dump the birds i shot until my brother in law told me how valuable they are (he's a chef) now any pigeons i get are kept, and they taste great.
