A brave doo, indeed.

This immediately sprung to mind when I saw the title of this thread.

I put up bird feeders in the garden and the pigeons obviously are too big to hang off them etc so they mill about on the ground below them.They can be vicious wee things,there really is a "pecking" order ,fights break out all the time.They batter each other with their wings and peck and "lock on" to their rivals feathers behind the head.The local sparrowhawk however puts the wind up them.
