Watched a dove holding its own today
Pecking and scrabbling on the footpath
A couple of common mynahs swooped and gangstered the bird.
It ignored 'em at first but suddenly switched tactics and started charging them - hell for leather.
Only time I've ever felt sorry for mynah birds. They shit me.
Then, for round two, a big raven came down to see what the ruckus was about.
The adrenaline must've been up because the dove just went that as well.
Helluva free for all.
Then the cops arrived, spoiling everything. The avians all scattered when they saw the flashing lights.
The law asked me if I'd seen anything but as in the past when these things occurred, I told 'em nothing.
Tough love
