Thread: No respect at all!

    Default I wonder...

    Putting on my outdoorsman hat, just trying to figure out why birds would roost or linger on one statue and not another. In looking at your example pics Curt I notice the statue with the larger/higher base is the one you mentioned is ignored. I wonder if this is related to the proximity of the statues to any possible food source?

    Consider a lower situated statue in parks and so forth which would provide a suitable roost for observing and quickly reaching crumbs, scraps of food dropped by passers-by but yet still provide a level of elevated protection against ground-bound predators. A broader base may also further remove benches where those scraps are likely to be dropped.

    I wonder if there is a correlation? Not something for a gov't grant study but sure is a curious thing. We need that wildlife guy from the Geico commercials.
    It is a HOBBY...not a RELIGION.

    I once interviewed for a QC job at another fish company in Gloucester. It's "clean" and all but the fish is unloaded from the factory ships in large frozen cubes of fish material. The cubes are cut with a band saw and pressed into fillet shaped pieces in molds. MMMMmmmmm!
