    Berry Identification

    This is the exact grass patch that I found the berries in: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.1709932,-80.2428749,3a,23.1y,239.34h,73.62t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sIoQMNNlz7oZZPRjjGI1NhA!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?entry=ttu

    Berry Identification

    I have this picture: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/688314007374921738/1134350379174346812/20230728_010250.jpg As far as I can tell, that's Snakeberry. I think the leaves look raspberry, but the fruit looks like tiny strawberries aimed straight up. The seeds are tiny and red. I foraged...

    Strange Mourning Dove Behavior

    I just watched her for the last two hours, and she showed me something that fits your question! I never saw her by herself before, and today I did. She doesn't whine when other doves are around, and actually sits still (besides pecking at the seed I give her flock). Her other family members...

    Strange Mourning Dove Behavior

    I was able to get a screenshot of her with her wings at the high point of her half-flaps.

    Strange Mourning Dove Behavior

    I have this dove that hangs out with me every day, but I've finally decided that there might be something wrong with her. If she was a human, I'd say she might just have tourette's syndrome. Can birds get that neurological issue? Anyway, what the bird does. She is always whining all the time...

    Nice! I'm actually trying to move to the South Sioux City area, but just about all the landlords I got a hold of said they don't have anything available for someone like me or haven't answered the phone or called me back or responded to my emails.

    Oh, I absolutely agree. I've even paid the crows to protect the neighborhood, and they did! (Paid in popcorn, of course. I didn't want to give them much stale bread since I didn't know if corvids could get angelwing.)

    That's awesome! Yeah I like to say at my support group that "It's wonderful that the prettiest birds in the area that sing the prettiest songs wake me up in the morning, and if you translate it into English, it's 'Hey, wake up, I want more sunflower seeds!'" Before I moved out here, I fed other...

    Thank you everyone! The above aren't the only pictures I have of my doves, I have a LOT more. I usually have my webcam aimed at a wall or something, unless I wanna take pictures and then I'll put it outside the window on the sill where I know the birds are going to be. They're with me the entire...

    (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I don't have any chickens nor do I want any (I'm a renter with no yard). I like feeding whatever birds randomly show up to my apartment, and have now been friends with a flock of mourning doves for almost 3 years. (2) How many...
