Are these pigeons? Doves? Whatever. I'm not sure how much bigger these freaks of nature plan to get, but they have taken over the upper realms of multiple trees in our garden. Boo desperately wishes she could fly -- they taunt her from their perch. She has, however, done a good job of letting these monsters know that touching terra firma is a bad idea. The wife wants to go 'Tony Soprano' on these things.

As your resident ornithologist I actually had to go to outside sources to find this bird. You have the pleasure of having Wood Pigeons (Columba palumbus) in your grove!! Commonly known in your area as a Culver, they are a bit larger than the Rock Dove (Columba livia) that most of us are familiar with in our cities. It appears that they are hunted in rural areas. Squab is supposed to be quite tasty.

Break it down for me. Can we kill it and eat it? That would bring Boo great pleasure.
