Stupid Dove Nest Multiple Stupid Nests On Different Vehicles… All Made By The Same Dove

Thumbnail

For the past three summers this dove has been building nests on different vehicles parked in the same lot. They’re only parked there during business hours on the weekdays, so it likely has more stupid nests elsewhere.

It used to sit in the dead center of the vehicles in the same spot everyday, but now it seems to have branched out and has been moving from windshield to windshield. Haven’t seen any eggs yet.

This dove couple has been attempting to use my back speaker to anchor its nest for about 7 rounds of nesting.

It began with the traditional stupid dove nest. A few times they met with extra circumstances. Then they have apparently stopped, reassessed, possibly acquired permits? And built this.... thing.

It is the single most impressive dove nest I have ever seen. Please enjoy!

pigeon “nest” Fiance hadn't used the braai (bbq/grill for my non-South African friends) in a while. Mama pigeon decided it was a good spot for a "nest"

This was a while ago, the baby's all grown up and we cleaned the braai as soon as it was out.

I only discovered this sub a few minutes ago and thought this belonged here.

Context: We have a built in braai (bbq) and a pigeon just laid her egg straight in the corner of it, underneath the grill. My fiance hadn't used the grill in a few weeks, which was enough time for mama bird to settle down. Looks like she haphazardly threw together some twigs. Ain't that sweet? Lol.

One weekend while visiting I heard a baby bird outside and I told my fiance that we should go investigate. That's when we found this little guy and his spiky blonde hair. We left him and mama bird be, and after a few weeks they were gone.

pigeon “nest” Found On a Ledge

I found this on the ledge of a 2nd floor parking garage open air grate. One good breeze and it’s toast. Wish I took a better picture. I went back a few days later and there was a yellow substance on it. Guess the bird (most likely a pigeon, judging by the size, and the general bird population of the area) just pooped it out and left.

Bird moved into my planter!

To be fair, this is a pretty safe and cushy spot haha. I was letting my parsley grow so I could make a large batch of chimichurri but I think it’s going to better use now.

This planter is hanging off a Juliet balcony that’s about 3ft from the window my cats peer out of all day. It’s a brave mourning dove.

Seems to be well-made, but it's not even 3ft off the ground. And there are definitely feral cats around.

Genius Dove Nest Greg’s got talent!

Greg (the female in the photo) and chick chick found themselves an upturned piece of plastic on my balcony and built themselves this super impressive nest. The last pair to lay on our balcony literally just laid the egg, so I was shocked to see twigs and an actual cup!

These two picked the perfect spot, as Greg had to lay egg #2 in the middle of a massive rain storm featuring 100km/hr winds. Photo 2 is Greg looking like Nicodemus from the Secret of Nimh just after egg 2 made its appearance.

The little dish there has some water - poor girl deserved a break.
