Woodpigeon
A Woodpigeon perfectly summing up the weather on the first Saturday of the month. Norwich - November 2023
This bird was warming itself shortly after the sun had appeared over the houses in a patch of sun on a neighbour's windowsill.

This is how we used to see Woodpigeons when I was young. 40 years ago they'd have never ventured into an urban back garden.

This woodpigeon knows where the smaller garden birds get their seed from. This is the pigeon equivalent of standing on tiptoes...
.... and this the equivalent of using your arms to balance. I don't think it actually got any seed but it was very persistent. Norwich - June 2019
Preparing to dine...
...and getting stuck in. Garden feeders, Norwich - January 2019
This particular bird has just filled up on seed and seems quite content. Norwich February 2018
