the flock IS a black pigeon that has no
legs. It's mode Of picking up seeds is
very odd. The bird alights on its breast,
and seeing anything it wants, rolls or
wallows over TO it and picks it up. 1t is
lat, and does not appear to be suffering
from want OF food 1t has been captured
several times. and those who have
banded the bird declare that there was
no indication that II ever had Il legs
