grin is not a tidy diner but is tidier than some
about a 6 foot diameter circle for a pigeon 4 ft for a sparrow
dinner is held to the floor, plucking starts on the breast,eat that, start to pluck more while turning side to side spitting feathers, but dinner is still in the same position, eat more, pluck more, use talons to rip if needs be, eat rest bar the beak, chuck beak into feather ring, clean plate.
a completed meal is a circle of feathers with a beak and maybe a few sarcostains in the middle
wind etc can make a circle not a circle but on a big enough tablecloth they seem to make circles |

Sorry, can't help you there as I am afraid I don't know much about moths.
We spent Wednesday night in the woods as we were going to light the charcoal kiln early, and heard a variety of bird life. The owls were noisy at dusk and early morning, but silent during the night, so presumably hunting. Heard a woodpecker, pigeons and a thrush and I think a pheasant being very noisy at dusk yesterday. Managed a walk in the woods on Wednesday ( and got a bit wet) and found a couple of lovely clumps of primroses, lots of bluebell leaves, but no other flowers yet. Think I may also have found a new badger sett, but not sure if it is a full sett, or just an outlier that some of them go to in the spring. There was also a red kite soaring just above the trees, but by the time I got my phone sorted out it had disappeared. |
