Some of my friends live in our yard, others visit it, still others live elsewhere and I visit them. Come and read about all my feathered friends...

Affectionate pigeon!

January 16th 2008 19:35
Last week, Smokey knew I was miserable so sat on my head… He is an extremely affectionate bird. This past week he knows I am very much stuck in the creative zone, spiritually led and absent minded, and it has made him quite besotted with me. In the mornings, he behaves, arriving early to join the others for a breakfast feed. During the day, if I go outside, he will follow me around and try to sit on my head. If I snip the edges on my path, he walks along the path to be close to me, or attempts to sit on my shoulder. If I do the laundry, he follows me into the dunny and watches down at me from a beam on the wall. If I sit outside to read, Smokey comes to sit on a foot, leg or head. In the afternoons he flies home to his wife, Spotty, but he generally returns at the close of the day. Missing evening seed-feed, I have to peel myself out of bed, where I generally am reading or studying, and grab a handful of seed. He will fly directly onto my wrist and eat them straight from my hand. After this performance, he will spend a little time running up and down my windowsill, frantically peering thru the curtains to spot me, tapping the glass, frantically trying to hold an inaudible conversation of love, and to find a way indoors to spend the night...
