Black Scruff and Speckley shared the bath tub! That was so cute. Normally, if one pigeon is standing or sitting in the water tub, they will peck any bird that comes near them, even a partner bird. But this time, when Black Scruff bathed, he let Speckley climb in beside him!
On another occasion, Speckley was first to fly down for the feed. He had one foot stood upon the seed tray, which was balanced over a lump on the doorstep. Each time he bent down to pick up a seed, the tray rattled and scared him. It was somewhat comical at first, he rushed to eat a few seeds - then stood back confused and alarmed - then hungrily rushed to eat, etc…
I have not seen Bebe, Baby, Smokey, Spotty, or even Dusty in weeks. I am hoping that they have found a closer-to-home place with seed supply. The rubbish wild pigeons eat is disgusting - sliced white bread, meat scraps, processed junk foods - anything that they can find. I feel sad that humans discard such rubbish without care, or even purposefully feed it to birds, not realizing the birds need a healthy diet as much as we do.
