Pigeon pecks are pretty precise (bit of a tongue twister). I have a few regular visitors to my windowsill, some will eat from my palm, others scour the windowsill for tiny bits of seeds, they’re close to the action and well attuned to things that might be tasty, so they may recognise things where you don’t. For instance the crumbs I’ve seen them picking at can be like 0.5mm!
