Sometimes I go have McDonald's and sit outside at the mall near my work. I always share my fries with the birds out there, making sure everybody gets some. Yesterday there was a woman bird just really pissed at another bird - I couldn't tell if it was another woman bird or an immature man bird - not enough black feathers to be sure. So I don't know if this was a sex thing or what. Anyway, this pissed off bird was just hollering and spritzing her feathers all up and chasing the other bird around. I tossed them some fries - the bird being hollered at grabbed a piece. The mad bird tried to calm down but just sat on the fence getting madder by the second. Finally she could stand it no longer and she got on the ground and commenced her hollering again. The picked-on bird did a very interesting thing. He/she walked calmly over to the pissed bird. and put his/her fry right in her beak. Just handed it right to her. She calmed down right away, I gave him/her another fry, and all was right with the world again.
