Homemade clam chowder with homemade Sourdough to pair with it.

Our casual dinner this evening was pork burgers on English muffins, asparagus and tossed salad. I made a honey mustard sauce for the burgers and put it on the asparagus as well since I wasn't in the mood to make a second sauce. I never used honey mustard on veggies before but it worked out just fine.
 
We had a visit from one of my wife's cousins who lives in Switzerland. I haven't seen her since 2008.
I put together some capressa-on-a-stick (cherry tomatoes, bocconcini and basil leaves), some Mediterranean Puff Pastry Wheels ( recipe from Instagram) and some Montaditos with artichokes and bacon (had 3 lost artichokes in the fridge).

The birds here must have built up a tolerance then. We see them in fast food place parking lots and outdoor restaurants waiting for chances to swoop in and steal fries, and any other dropsies.

Some birds can and do build up a tolerance I'm sure, just like humans. Other birds, such as sea going birds have the ability to excrete excess salt, but the likelihood is that you'll never see a (non-sea) bird suffering from a salt overdose because they'll be dead. Plus larger birds can also eat proportionally more, so pigeons won't be as badly affected as a blackbird, which will fair better than a sparrow or blue tit (sorry for UK names but you're more likely to know them than Aussie birds such as a Weebill)
