At The Bird Table

The pigeons are at the bird table again. They are so enthusiastic and hopeful. The bars prevent them plopping down onto the table and scoffing the lot, but they try every way to hang on and sweep a few seeds their way.

Do they get more energy from their efforts than they expend in getting the seeds? Who knows. Certainly they have got used to me and wait on the roof of the house or even the roof of the shed for me to finish filling the bird table.
