RE: Wildbird life here in our area.

Thank you for the nice reply, and yes, the birds are very intelligent, even know how to protect their youngsters. We now have a pair of laughing dove youngsters here, and it is a great learning curve for us to see how the parents guided them here and to teach them how to eat the nuts that my wife lays out for them.
When I was young, one of those thorns of an acacia tree broke off flush in my heel, and my gran placed a homemade pulp on it to extract the thorn overnight. A very painful remembrance. Lol
Glad that you now know that birds feed their babies with insects.
