Wood Pigeon MYSTERY: Are They REALLY Smart? 🕊️

✅The wood pigeon, a plump and graceful bird with a distinctive coo, is a common sight in parks and woodlands across Europe. Unlike their city cousins, these birds are almost exclusively vegetarian.

Large flocks of wood pigeons descend upon fields, meticulously picking their way through clover leaves, feasting on fallen acorns, and cracking open beechnuts with their strong beaks. Autumn brings a change in their menu, as these birds become enthusiastic consumers of juicy berries, particularly the abundant offerings of ivy clinging to trees.

Wood pigeons are resourceful feeders, readily adapting their diet to the changing seasons and the availability of food sources. Whether they're meticulously❎
