And she’s not alone. Experts warn that in the period from April to May, the courtship is in full swing, and the new lovers are looking for a place to nest and bring their young to the world. Birds usually look for a bit of a stitching room, where it is calm, it does not rain there and does not blow unnecessarily… For example, pigeons are empty pots on the balcony that will serve as a nest. Various corners with junk, where birds can hide well. “Which, the swallows nest twice a year – in May and July. But such a pigeon is productive for 12 months.
