I'll try not to do it too often, it'd get wearying, but onw I found out how to do it (Thanks Gee19!) the captions just wrote themselves

Great pictures, anytime you need more pigeons perhaps I can get a few dozen of ours to vacation/move to yours!

Great blog Fran and the captions just top it off - very clever! What a good thing you provide a footbath each.

Don't you wish you could join them?

We already have enough "air-rats" round here, Honeysuckle, but thanks for your most generous offer :-p
Lol Steragram, I thought the bigger tray would do for bigger birds to dip and the small ones for smaller birds to dip, and that both could drink at either. Lucky I spaced them a bit apart, they were closer at first.
Thanks Scottish. I took lots more pics, but these were enough to tell the story - I didn't change the order to make the story happen.
lol Linda, I'm going to get a kid's paddling pool out there - so long as I cover it at night, or I'll find ducks in it!

ps four years later: now I've got a new garden i did get a paddling pool - I just need enough level ground to use it!

For yourself or the pigeons?

lol for me! last year I had a small one, covered it with old net curtain to keep insects out; would do the same this time. only snag is how to keep the water from going green without using chemicals - or refilling it every couple of days. apart from the water bill, water straight from the hose is cooooooooooooold!
