wood pigeons

 Pine and larch grow in front of the windows of my apartment. Already last year, a pair of wood pigeons started building a nest, but then gave up. This year the pigeons have come again. They started building a nest. The male broke off larch twigs and carried it over a pine tree. The female was arranging them. These activities were very funny. A lot of twigs fell under the tree. Passers-by asked who was the trash under the trees. It took about 3 days to build. Then the pigeons were sitting in turn on the nest. The nest is just above the window. It's easy to observe. I got two eggs in the nest. Hatching is already taking place in the second week. I personally try to protect the place from cats looking there. The weather is very bad now. It's been raining the second day and it's about +2 degrees. Hope the chicks hatch. When that happens, I will write in the next post.
