    Nifty.

    You need more diversity though. Too many blue birds -- are the different bird types territorial?

    It's not too bad. Every day I clean the birdhouse, sweep up the loose seed from my pigeons inside the building , and toss it out to the feral pigeons. A few years ago there were only a few. Looks like the word got out.

    Blue bars are the most common pigeon. I do have some multi colored mosiacs like this that come around.

    Not really, the biggest (pigeons) get to eat first. They are like two legged vacuum cleaners.

    My father in law used to raise show pigeons.

    I don't race or show my birds, they are just my pets.
