Columbary: (n.) A dovecote; a pigeon house.

Welcome to The Columbary, a personal website about my Doves and Pigeons, as well as the name of my aviary. Take some time, look around, enjoy the pictures and information.

I won't attempt to recreate the great care and information sites available on the internet, I'll just refer you to them with a few comments of my own here and there. My Links page can direct you to much more information about each type of bird.

PLEASE NOTE: I have significantly downsized my flock, and only have a few birds at this time. I'm leaving this page up for the information links it contains.

Thank you.

Worried about Avian Flu? To date, it is a NON-ISSUE in North America.
