Rpigeoncam has ended. Sadly, both Nova and Neander discovered the pigeon nest in the Powers Bldg nest box and took both the young squab. It was just a matter of time. We have no way of knowing where the adult pigeons are, but hopefully they will not attempt to nest there again.

6/8/23 Nest Box Visits

Showers early (I'll believe it when I see it), then cloudy in the afternoon. Areas of smoke and haze are possible, reducing visibility at times. High 61F with winds N at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%. Currently 56F and cloudy. A lot less smoke than there was yesterday morning. We had a lot of window strikes by birds yesterday. I wonder if the heavy smoke cause this? Thankfully, they all survived.

Early morning headcount.

I don't think this will end well. 😕

They wanted Bam Bam but number 2 turned out to be a girl as well

Yabba-Dabba-Doo!

These are not identical time frames-2022 has approx. 4 extra days (equivalent date is 6/22)-but the pattern is holding true!



Some day when I have less on my plate I'll do some comparisons with Mariah, Beauty & Nova...

Thanks, Ei! I'm sure the pigeons have been analyzing these charts for years.
