lol
thanks for all of the well wishes:) I do plan on just getting used to them, but I won't mention to my hubby that they are probably here to stay:D :D :rolleyes: Momma bird really is quite cute sitting there keeping her eggs warm. I'm trying to get a picture of her in the nest, but I scare her away when I try.
by the way.. I'm just ASSUMING that it is the female pigeon that stays home and tends to the eggs while the male pigeon is out gathering stuff for the nest, anyone know if that is accurate for pigeons? I know in some species it is the male that tends to the babies. Just curious which one is Fred and which one is Wilma.

You got me curious too, so I went looking it up. Pigeons take turns sitting on the nest. Looks like the pigeon on the nest during the day is Fred and the one on the nest in the evening is Wilma. ^.^

Hey Lacey! That's good research! Did it also saw when we can expect Pebbles and Bam-Bam to hatch?:D
Hope they don't invite Barney and Betty to move on the other side of the balcony though!!:eek:

*zooms back to see* Now, where was that? Ah, here we go!
Looks like it takes about 18 days for the eggies to hatch.
Pigeon facts!

Cooool thanks so much Lacey:) It's 11:45 am right now, so I guess that Fred is on the nest right now:)
and just 18 days! Holy cow! we're going to have hatchlings in no time.:D :eek:

Aww, how cute! I love their names.
Sorry they are so messy but this will be fun to watch over the next month or two.
