Pigeons have both left nest ️

Hello. We have had two pigeons nesting in our tree for some years. They have been in the nest for some weeks and have diligently swapped places on a regular basis.  Today one came to the other then Pensiveey both flew off one after the other leaving two eggs.  Have they given up? Pensive

  • Assume you are talking about Wood pigeons Jayne? Incubation is around 18 days so if they've been there for a lot longer then maybe they feel their eggs won't hatch or may have been spooked by something? Just my opinion, wait for others to reply!
