Pigeons !

[Petertherabbit]

I've eaten pigeon many yrs ago, two breasts make a meal, in a difficult situation one breast per person would suffice.
Now, the reason for the thread. The guy opposite feeds the birds, he has attracted a flock of pigeons and smaller birds on average twice a day. They gather on his roof and descend to eat when it's quiet and nobody's around.
I would imagine, trapping one every other day or so, would not stop them visiting, providing it was done with a minimum of fuss.
I'm not suggesting taking his birds but maybe attracting pigeons and doves to my own back garden, might be a potential food source of the future ?
Some corn put out daily in the same place, to build up trust in feeding might pay dividends in the future.
Obviously have to avoid attracting rats by removing uneaten food but pigeons are greedy so I don't see that as a problem.

What do you think ?
