Or how sparrows reminded pigeons: size doesn’t matter when you’re hungry, fast, and feisty. 🐦

At first, all was peaceful. Pigeons were on one side, sparrows on the other. Then someone tossed a handful of breadcrumbs. The skirmish began instantly.

Sparrows chased pigeons across the pebbles, not allowing them a single peck.

Some pigeons flew off right away; others tried to defend their claim to the crumbs.

But what can you do when your enemy is united and numerous, and all your friends have already vanished into the bushes?

So the rest retreated too.

And just like that, the beach bullies staged a full takeover and claimed total control of the crumb zone.

No pigeons were harmed. Much.
