Pigeon Nest


A pair of pigeons have nested in one of my hedges (started near Australia Day). This is a picture of their babies from 2 days ago. I've left some second hand seed out for the parents, and it looks like they prefer eating it off the ground as opposed to a dish.

The two babies are now beginning to get some pep in them. They will puff up acting big and strong like their parents did when I got too close. They are nearly too big for the nest. This morning, the mother (or father) was sitting off to the side of them as they no longer fit underneath. Won't be too long before they fledge I think...
