I read some ornithologists about berry-eating birds, specifically fieldfares and waxwings. Here's what they say: thrushes and waxwings don't harm trees. They arrive in small flocks and settle evenly throughout the tree. As a result, they occupy positions that prevent branches from breaking under their weight. They eat fruit more carefully, so you won't see them on the ground, but there may be berry remnants on the bunches. I agree about them not breaking branches. But yesterday I saw them carefully eating fruit. The whole floor was red, and pigeons were picking up the fallen berries. By the way, about pigeons. Many consider them stupid birds, which is actually the opinion of stupid people. Pigeons are smart and resourceful, very trainable, and excellent at learning established rules of behavior both in their own society and with people. And when it comes to navigation, they are unrivaled. "While the clever crows were knocking the fruits off the tree to eat them on the ground, the 'stupid' pigeons had already eaten them."

Alex Kantsur, The future belongs to birds and other small creatures—it's humanity that is rapidly becoming stupid and self-destructive.

Nikolay Semyonov, I agree. Look at even such a small thing as ants and you're amazed at their organization and coordination, unlike our pumpkin-headed officials, who are incapable of stealing or even guarding. Although, no, they can steal; that's all they're capable of.
