building a nest for 'eggs'

A pair of pigeons has chosen this conifer in our garden for their nest. It's definitely a room with a view of the neighbour's lovely blossom but I can't help feeling that life would have been much simpler if the pigeons had been able to fit in the ready made home on the wall.
Nice shot, Hazel, and it does look very spring-like.

Pigeons built a nest in the conifer next to our conservatory last year and they have been investigating it again! Poor Bas our cockatoo is just the other side of the glass and I'm sure he would like a mate to nest with. Nice shot Hazel

They don't make it easy on themselves do they?! Always makes me laugh to see two pigeons together as they never ever go too away from one another !

@beryl @rosiekind @darrenboyj I don't think this is the brightest pair of pigeons as they have been simultaneously perching on the hazel branches the other side of the garden and trying to rip off twigs for nesting material, resulting in some very strange acrobatics!

@quietpurplehaze So good to watch though !!

That wonderful blossom makes the pic. for me.
Doves never makes a nest in a r.m. Home. The nest is a sloppy brings together of some branches in a tree. We have them nesting every year in a birch tree in our garden

@pyrrhula One year an old nest fell down out of the tree on to Ray's head. It was very rough made but quite heavy!

@pyrrhula p.s. I know they wouldn't get in that little house anyway - just my joke...........

@beryl I'd love to get a shot of them too!!!

I think pigeons must like conifers. We had one taking a viewing of one in our garden but don't know if they have decided to set up home there yet
