I still have no idea why, but one of the grandfather's hobby was breeding sparrows... that was his thing.

Not that I wasn't impressed; he bred sparrows that mimicked gold finches, which was pretty cool. just completely unnecessary.

Lmao... apparently you get about a week or 2 bird free before they return.
I myself was going to get rid of the nest before a friend told me they would be back. Sure enough, there she was almost immediately.

My dove just hatched round 2.
I am going to move the shelf she built her nest on outside when these 2 fly off.

I had a baby blue Jay in my yard yesterday evening. The mom dive bombed me repeatedly as I tried to shoo it towards some bushes.

That ***** didn't **** around. I honestly believe that she would have locked talons on me had I not been ducking.

If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a blue jay.

Bluejays are mean motherfuckers.
True assholes of the bird world.

Not a bad thing. Bird feeders are fun and birds suck after a few weeks. Going to the deck with BB gun. For the voles.

Yeah they are- she was coming at me and shrieking what I assume were profanities about my mother non-stop.

Birds have found my feeder. Those ******* are eating like crazy, I may have to put them on a diet. Also, my bird bath is filthy. I have to change the water at least every couple of day. This is like a full time job

I got stoner chick a new seed block and a squirrel baffle yesterday. Today feed pole is at 45 degree angle, block cage is open and seed block is gone but for a pile of shells. Looks like the work of racoons to me.

Not what this thread is about.

Its a Bird thread right? I eat birds.

Baiting them to make it easy to hunt/breed them is a tactic for sure. Some just feed and watch though. Pervs!

Stoner chick fixed her feeder. I saw some house finches and a red winged blackbird come to eat.

Heard an owl hooting around my place the last couple nights.
Saw a bunch of wild turkeys on my way to work.

4 pages of those with a affinity for our feathered friends!??

It certainly seems that a few of you have indeed heard the word...a certain word of the ornithological variety.
