Baby Pigeons

The dogs (Pippa & Lottie) were giving a tall bush in the garden a lot of attention with barking and trying to jump up into it as if trying to catch something. On investigation what they could hear/see was the mother and her three young baby pigeons.
 

Most small birds rear and fledge their young in 2/3 weeks with young birds sometimes leaving the nest after only 10 days of life, but pigeons are different; their young remain in the nest for up to 2 months before fledging. These guys are going to be used to dogs by the end of two months.
