CommentThese are free flying birds but are fed at a regular time every morning.
Unfortunately I was unable to persuade them to arrange their heads in a satisfying artistic arrangement!
Note that the feeding causes them to be unnaturally close to each other. They managed this without obvious conflict.
Note also the 'warty' growth on one of the birds.
