For those of you with air-rifles, I bet the wood pigeons (and sometimes seagulls) at my barbie are bigger and fatter and more barbecue-able than the budgerigars at Dave's...

Indeed I saw a heron on my neighbour's chimney-stack once. Not surprising as Europe's biggest heronry is about three miles away, at High Halstow, but one would be a challenge to get on the barbecue.
