Tiny Tim and Dotty are, as they should, making resolutions for the new year, but I feel like they laid a sort of trap for Paddy. I think if they were better friends to Paddy, knowing that he wanted to stop eating peanuts, they would have made sure that Paddy didn't see them, or distracted him somehow. Loudly pointing out the giant pile of them was not helpful.

All of this is moot, of course, since peanuts are actually very good and healthy for pigeons such as Paddy, at least in their raw, unprocessed form. Paddy will not want to cut them out of his diet completely, but I guess if he's eating a very large amount he can cut back a little bit.
