Pretty Boy comes and goes from his primary residence elsewhere in the village, while the female has begun the tedious chore of incubating her eggs. Probably, by the time you read this, the eggs will have hatched, and young pigeons will be taking flying lessons in what will soon be our new Reference Department. Fly High, Fly Low tells the story of a mated pair of pigeons, also gray and white, who nest in a sign atop a building slated for demolition.
Disaster seems imminent for the pigeons when the sign is taken down and moved to a new location.
But all ends well when the new home proves better than the old, and the baby birds are successfully hatched. Moving our birds' nest won't be necessary. Even as construction continues, our birds fly freely in and out through window openings that won't be closed until after the young birds have flown away. Timing is everything, and the sometimes slow pace of our construction project suits the pigeons who are the first to make the new addition home.
