He looks so ashamed, stop it. :(
Holy crap. I thought this was just a single pigeon being lazy, not a pigeon feature!
TBF theres like billions of fucking pigeons so maybe we should be taking notes on nest building.
In the wild they tend to build these rickety-ass little nests in places where predators have a hell of a time reaching or noticing, and rely on their chicks to basically build a fortified bunker of poop (most other species clean up but that's a different topic).
But then humans came along and built enormous vertical monolithic structures everywhere with little eves and outcroppings and the pigeon is now king. Hawks? Cats? Foxes? No biggie
It's weird to think that if our architectural tendencies leaned towards pyramids we'd probably have a goat problem about as bad, goats just randomly hanging out on the sides of buildings lol

I certainly wouldn't have to mow.

I feel like this statement could be a good shower thought post haha
city pigeons are descended from rock pigeons which in nature breed on the ground on tall cliffs and stuff, they don't really build proper nests. This is part of why they thrive in cities, since tall buildings are a perfect nesting opportunity.
it ain't much but it's honest! egg blows away
It stops the egg rolling away, it works.
Yeah, they primarily used cliffs with sheltered nooks before they were domesticated, so as long as they don't roll off the ledge who cares
I destroyed repeatedly a pigeon nest-in-building because of a nasty experience I had the previous year. These determined little birds lay a egg during the night next to A SINGLE BRANCH!
Latter they layed a second eggs unfortunately it has rolled over the edge of the balcony because of that.
Crazy birds...
This makes me love them.
If the egg hatches successfully who are we to judge 🤷
More than successful, l think that she thought half way in: "fuck it, good enough"
Pigeons' nests aren't made to keep stuff inside, they just need to prevent the eggs from rolling off.
haha ty. i believe you. but its still so adorable
Pathetic.
