The Optimistic Parent
- Pigeons are a common sight in the UK and are often seen as pests due to their reputation in urban areas and it's easy to forget them as doting parents. As I was working today I watched this Wood Pigeon spend twenty minutes or so struting about the lawn inspecting numerous twigs and sticks which might pass the judgement of his nesting partner, discarding many as either not the correct length or thickness. Clearly impressed with this selection it ultimately proved too much to manage and more appropriate building material was eventually chosen. Thurnham Court, Devizes.
