Pigeons and a wired bird table

Following on from the previous post on my attempt to stop pigeons monopolising the bird table I made a few adjustments (mainly just tightening the wire). This seemed to work. After taking the photos shown below I witnessed a pigeon trying for 10-15 seconds to land on the table. Below are a few photos of the birds using the table:

A collared dove stepping into the table

A useful exercise – not just ‘art’ photography but ‘photography with a purpose’ – in this case recording what happens on the bird table.
