threegardeners's blog: And then there was 27...

Posted on Mar 20, 2012 7:06 AM

Meet the Danish Suabian. They're like the raccoon of the pigeon world. Love the masks on these guys.

DH told me they were a gift. I got a bit suspicious though when he was going to work and not bringing home any money....hmmmm... working off pigeons, maybe, dear?

Anyways, they're here, and I like them. They're bigger than the Old German Owls. Hard to get a picture of because they're always moving.

Of course more pigeons means we need a bigger, better, pigeon play ground.

Before After

I like it. It's like a big pigeon picture window.

Aparently DH built the new run-out around the old one. Then he climbed through the window in the old one, chased the pigeons inside and promptly nailed chicken wire over the window to keep them inside. No easy feat this, when pigeons want to be out in the sun it takes some doing to convince them otherwise. "Ha!" he exclaimed, all proud of himself "take that". Then he turned around and was faced with the still intact wall of the small runout...he was trapped....and his tools were outside of the runout...**snicker**.

Can you just picture all 6' 3" of him stuck in that little runout? Needless to say he couldn't save the old runout. Wish I'd of been home to video this adventure.

More Danish Suabian (regular and red versions) pics for your viewing enjoyment.
