Dove invading bird table
Jul 2nd, 2008 by Birdy Trish
I may have to buy a mesh covered bird table after all
This is a picture of my new birdtable. I had to put wire and string round to keep the larger birds off. Rooks, crows and pigeons were the thugs of the birdtable.
I made the so blackbirds and thrushes could still get onto this table
Yet, if Doves (and maybe pigeons) are squeezing through the holes and getting themselves onto the birdtable, I may have to.
How can I rage war with the peaceful dove?
How can I let the dove eat the bird food every day?
I thought bird feeding would be a peaceful, problem free passtime.
On the birdtable is cheese, cut up apple, good quality bird food table mix and sunflower seed hearts.
That feast of bird food would have fed blackbirds, blue tits, sparrows and other smaller birds all day.
