Yes, it is called "911 Pigeon Alert". Also, if the pigeon has a band around it's leg there should be an identification number on it. If so, call your local animal wildlife center, they will most likely be able to advise you further.

There are actually several sites online that offer a lost and found section for homing or racing pigeons. One of the most popular is International Federation of American Homing Pigeon Fanciers Inc, which offers a distinctive leg band for pigeons to be used as a tracking device. People can check out their classifieds/forums for postings of lost birds.

Homing Pigeons are registered with a leg band. They have this band from the moment of their hatching and they stay with them for life denoting what organization they are a part of.

There is not a Homing Pigeon Lost and Found that I know of. Not all Homing Pigeons are trained to go to the same locations.
