Doves and starlings

[jon2]

A few birds feeding in my garden doves and starlings. you can see why they called starling with all the markings on them,

Love the doves, not a big fan of starlings, though.
BTW, how's Spike the hedgehog....see him lately?

Not a big fan of the starlings myself. but i seem to get lots of them in my garden.. spike hasen't been around for a couple of weeks now i still put food out. but i think he's hibernating now the weather as got a lot colder here,

This is one of the reasons why the little birds never get fat. the feckin starlings eat all the food before they get a chance,,

Yep...kind of like the plumpest people at the serve yourself buffet....you'd think the way they pile the food on their plate that they'd never get a chance to go back for seconds...then they wind up throwing away food.

A local Ryan's buffet closed last year or the year before, probably good timing for me, too....it seems I was coming too close to slapping one of those types in the back of the head like Gibbs does on NCIS.
