Great photos, Jean. The Wood Pigeons were certainly having a bit of a quarrel! I don't blame the Collared Dove for getting out of the way! :lol:

Typical wood pigeon behaviour Forget Me Not. (I reckon that would have made a good video). Obviously not a mating pair :girlygiggle: Don't blame the collared dove for keeping a low profile.

The starling looks like he enjoyed the bath.

:thanks: for posting

This wood pigeon was eating some crisps that had been dropped on the ground.

Great pic of the Starling, Jean. He does look quite bedraggled!

Great pic of the Wood Pigeon, Tabatha. I'm sure that he enjoyed those crisps!
