As he had taken to following me around the garden and looking like he might peck my leg I gave him a good helping of sunflower hearts and a big bowl of water. (I think I am too soft hearted, my husband said to leave him and he would go somewhere else for food) He ate up and then flew off, so I thought he had gone. But this morning he was back, apparently he spent the night on a roof a few doors down. I am now hoping he will take up with the local Woodies, but if he is here much longer I think we shall have to try and catch him and report him. I am still undecided what is for the best. I still think that people who breed and keep animals for sport should be responsible for them and make sure they are cared for, for their natural life span, not kill them just because they don't perform.
