The Birds of Saint Francis

My Neighbor, an amazing pastor and friend has taken to imitating the qualities of Saint Francis of Assisi. I noticed that this past week when my tree was filled with birds. Rens, Pigeons, and Doves fly all around my neighborhood. He said I would appreciate their presence with time, I asked him if he would enjoy cleaning my car weekly. We both laughed. I am beginning to wonder though, if birds are a good source of nutrition. Will they be grass fed? If i feed them red worms for weeks, will they be safe for consumption then. Can I fatten up my impromptu urban ornithology knowledge within the next few weeks? and the birds as well? Good questions. We shall see.
