    Birds have been on this planet, OP, since Archaeopteryx, a hundred and forty million years ago. Doesn't it seem odd that they'd wait all that time to start a war against humanity.

    We're the top of the foodchain. We rule the roost, pardon the pun.

    Will he say that if a lion tries to eat him

    We've loads of birds in our garden. Feed them all year round. They are a joy to watch:)

    We've one particular blackbird that seems to be singing even louder than usual, maybe because of the lack of noise around and we live in what would be classed a very quiet area at the best of times.

    Indeed. Practically tamed, thats why they're not afraid to wander into fanads garden. Hunting for sport is particularly sickening in this instance where the 'sport' element is non existent.

    We too had a pair of pheasants visiting our garden last year. Every day for a few weeks. Absolutely beautiful creatures. Happily pecking the ground beneath our bird feeders, alongside a multitude of small birds. Then one of them disappeared. Met his maker, literally. The other pheasant stood at the highest point of our rockery and called for him all day long. It was actually heartbreaking. Then she was taken too. :(
    Not shot though. Not until Nov afaik. Because they're all bred and fed by people , as said no fear of us . Wander the roads so a fair bit of roadkill.

    Does it not taste a bit....."familiar" to them??

    No cos the chicken you eat is not even meat its processed protein matter and so far removed form the flavours of real bird flesh, try a wild bird sometime the flavour is unreal whereas a mopdern farmed chicken is not much different than tofu tasteless needing loads of seasoning to have any taste !
