    Going to give [email protected] a shoutout I guess, even though those bastards hated my (shit)post about raising pigeons on my balcony, that made me delete the post and unsubscribe from the community, haha.

      Oh no! I liked your pigeon post. I’m raising mourning doves on my balcony… Actually I’m just throwing out hulled sunflower seeds every morning, but the family that eats them is up to 12 members now. Maybe not for long, because a young redtailed hawk has joined the neighborhood, and last night we heard a great horned owl for the first time ever.

        Thank you, I guess I had a couple upvotes too but I was ratio’d pretty hard, for a small generally positive low traffic community I had like 20 down votes or something, people really did not like this. So I thought if it’s a real serious community about growing vegetables, it’s not for me, I don’t do that, I just do lighthearted wild flowers and bird stuff.

        Awesome that you got these doves around and the owl! I have a kestrel cruising around my yard too. The pigeons make themselves all slim and starved looking when they hear it 😆 It’s tough out there for the birds, including the kestrel.
