Media notes
Part of the flock of Rock Pigeons eating hackberries high in a tree in the hackberry grove at Wesley and Lexington.
Observation details
14 pigeons were on highway light fixtures, one was on a wire at the usual Garfield alley, and at least 30 were eating hackberries in the grove at Wesley and Lexington. (The pigeons eating hackberries while fluttering in the canopy was a new experience for me!)
