    Hi All,

    We live in a top floor apartment with a balcony. I've just come home to notice there's a pigeon on the railing of the balcony and under a table there's an unbroken egg with what looks like small bits of a nest beside it, but no sign of the actual nest. Is there anything we can do/not do to help the situation. We've not approached the pigeon or egg. Thanks in advance for any advice

    Let nature take care of it self

    I saw a nest while on holidays in Portugal last year.
    Suffice to say,it'sjust a few twigs in the ground.

    Pigeon brain probably thinking "lovely, a ledge on top of a really high cliff. Nobody will ever find my egg here".
    Didn't reckon on the patio doors opening... :pac:

    My son brought me in one the eggs. Of course being half asleep I didn't realize what it was and broke it.

    A new egg was on the balcony next morning

    It'll probably only lay the two eggs :rolleyes: .....
