The Woodies gut juices must be very strong to stand small green cherries. I would get my car covered as it might end up pebble-dashed green :eek:

About half an hour ago (and getting dark outside), I went out the front to say goodbye to my visitor and spotted a woodpigeon hunkered down on the edge of my roof. I've just looked and he's still there now and it's gone dark. Very strange.

There were two of them having a bit of a flutter in a tree in the park this morning.

I had not seen a Woodie in my garden for 6 weeks until today when 3 turned up.

I have a couple of smallish Cotoneasters growing in my front garden which have produced their best crop of berries ever this year. This hasn't gone unnoticed by my returning Woodies who I spotted tucking into them with some vigour this morning. :)

My woodies are making inroads into my Rowan berry crop at present. They have the tree to themselves except for on Blackbird. The Sturks usually have a good go but this year they have missed the bus.
