Fun fact: This Lee isn't the first Lee! He is, in fact, the 20th or so generation of "Lee" Ford has ever owned. Ford takes care of a lot of pigeons, and unfortunately, not all of them live very long. Pigeons can live up to 15 years if well taken care of, but the average lifespan of street doves is two to three years, due to unhealthy living conditions or other external causes (human related accidents, injury etc...)
Even though Ford really tries his best to treat his pigeons the best he can, sometimes their deaths are out of his control, and it's a little hard to keep them healthy when you live in the streets.
However, the Lee we have now is Ford's longest surviving pigeon, having just reached 10 years of age! It's a huge sign of trust for Ford to let someone else touch Lee. He's very protective!
