How did the baby pigeon manage to fly south in the winter joke\?

I think this is because of the parents of the pigeon which help it managed to transport itself to another part of the region. This can be the effort of parental investment to the offspring. 

Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in your queries. 

the most likely explanation for this is that his wounds have started to scab over and that stops the bleeding.
