Say hello to Pete

This is our friend Pete. Pete the Pigeon. He spends probably 80% of his life in our garden. We don't know why he's so fascinated by it. At first we were abit irritated by him, we liked our little Goldfinches and Bluetits and Pete was well, just a pigeon.

But over the past few months, we've both grown rather fond of Pete. He's no trouble, he eats the seeds the other birdies drop on the floor, so he helps keep the garden tidy. He's well presented, he doesn't have gammy feet or one eye or half a wing, he's nicely turned out, some would even say dappa. He's even bought his new lady friend along to show her his humble abode.

We quite like Pete. We think he can stay.
