 If any of you posted in the April Month of Birds side challenge, this is the same bird I posted there.

This is my friend Stubby Foot who's been regularly visiting me since I moved into this apartment 4ish years ago. He quietly sits on the balcony and watches the activity down below. He's always been fairly trusting so I can get pretty close sometimes.

He'll often disappear for a few weeks and I'll worry that he might have been hit by a car or caught by a cat but he showed up yesterday and I gave him some food. These were taken from about 2 feet away.

He's a Zebra Dove and they're abundant here.

Lovely bird. Glad to see he's back again. I like the seed in his mouth.

That's awesome.
If you didn't point it out I might have missed the missing foot entirely. That's a good find.
