>> They seem to almost exclusively eat Doves. They usually leave just the feathers in a perfect round circular pattern where they eat them.
They like the doves because the doves are SLOW compared to other songbirds. Doves also have a hard time trying to change course once they take off making it easier for the sharpie to nail it. The neatest thing in the world is watching a silly sharpie think he's "top gun" enough to catch a gold finch... them little goldies can turn on a dime much better than a sharpie so they tend to outmaneuver the faster moving sharpie. Like watching an air show jet dog-fight on a military base with birds instead of planes.
