[Sca-cooks] pigeons and small birds

[Stefan li Rous]

For the virtual siege cooking contest Maggie MacD offered:
> From the Canton of Tanwayour, at Lands End in Caid:
> One fresh pigeon (dead or alive, we've got plenty to spare)
> Fresh strawberries- a quart
> A alf dozen bitter oranges (the ones on my tree are just coming ripe)
I've got a number of recipes for strawberries and bitter oranges, but I 
don't think I have too many for pigeons. So, does anyone have any 
period recipes for these? Their small size would seem to make them 
problematic at SCA feasts, but has anyone served these at a feast? Or 
served other small birds?
