Oh, window impacts go without saying. My living room window almost always has a greasy pigeon splat mark on it; every so often the management company has the windows cleaned and then another pigeon will slam into it. Even if the curtains are closed or if something is on the windowsill. Never once seen a corvid or other bird do it, only pigeons. I once saw a pigeon do its little head-bob horny dance at another pigeon and actually get a receptive response. The horny pigeon stopped, looked confused for a second, and flew off. They’re absolutely gormless, it’s delightful.

PSA, don't let your cats drink the water you have in the base, danger isn't great, but pine trees have something in them that can make them sick.

They mate for life, and spend a lot of the middle of a summer as a pair kissing each other on your garden fence, which is just plain cute. They also get confused by moving, sitting, or sometimes just breathing. I've seen one take 45 minutes to figure out that the bird house roof it was sitting on, and the food 6 inches under that, just required it to hop. One hop, there was a fence a foot away to hop on. Looking here, looking there, nope, could not figure it out. I love them, but there's a reason why the foxes around here use them as dinner buffets, they're dumb as bricks. No, a brick would be smarter, it wouldn't drown in a bird bath.

You need to use a flat tray or something on the ground where the squirrels can beat them to it.

Every time someone says they "lose" at this thing I feel like you've won. That song's a banger. I never participated or liked "the game." Everyone just cascading in a series of "oh poo poo I lose the game." It's the same as yelling HEY EVERYONE I THOUGHT OF A MOOSE and everyone yelling YOU MADE ME THINK OF A MOOSE That game would be a lot more fun, actually. Can we make a moose game?

I wouldn't eat one from a city, but pigeon from the countryside is delicious. Pan fried with some butter and rosemary, roast potato and honey glazed yams... drat now I'm hungry, wonder if my neighbor still has those ones in his grain shed.
