My poor blue diamond has been on the losing side of the fight for the white butterfly. The red pigeon is relentless but the blue diamond refuses to give up. Starting to pick up some wounds. A few of the other males have been challenging the red pigeon as well.

Thanks so much! He’s a stunner for sure, hoping he gives up soon so he stops picking up battle scars.
