Mother pigeon chose
your balcony before so many others, Andrew! I hope you felt honoured!
I'm fond of my pair because they're always around & they amuse me enormously. They have wonderful romantic interludes, snuggling up close together on my fence & cooing at each other, when they seem a marriage made in heaven .... then, on other days, they bicker ferociously & really give each other hell!
Hours & hours of free entertainment!
Now I'm hoping that the native birds will return, too ....
But no sign of that yet.
