You’re probably wondering what happened to Pigeon Watch Day 1. Well I missed a day, so sue me. Your next question is why are we watching pigeons? Turns out my balcony is very pigeon friendly. A couple days ago I noticed twigs building up in a space between a storage box and the secondary balcony door. The next day an egg appeared, and today a second egg appeared. The mother pigeon must have been scouting this spot for weeks, there have been 3 pigeons that have been regular visitors to the balcony, one must have been mama pigeon. It’s not often nature comes to you in a heavily populated area and it will be interesting to see the pigeon chicks when they are born.

After a quick google search it looks like it will take 18 days for the eggs to hatch. Hopefully both eggs hatch successfully. I’ll post again with any changes and of course when the pigeons hatch.
