Why do pigeons.....

Car sticker.birds do it bees do it but why do they do it on my car 😀

Hopefully OP's birdbath was a highlight of said pigeon's life.

We have a pair of pigeons that nest in the wisteria on the front of the house, they drive our dog mad. Behind our house we have herb fields and the pigeons are shot by licensed shooters. I sometimes get given a pigeon or two and do a lovely pigeon breast dish with pomegranate molasses and walnuts. Delicious!

Wood Pigeons mate for life, my husband refuses to shoot them on this basis.

I didn't know that Sago we've had them for at least three years. I shall think of them more kindly but they do eat most of the cherries on our huge cherry tree. It's currently in flower and too big to net but the pigeons are now welcome to the feast!

Gosh.
It's an old thread .
But the main reason why pigeons sit in water is to get some relief from mites .

Pigeons poo in my bird bath, posing a health threat to other birds, so I can’t fill it in dry weather for the birds to drink.

I've watched them drink from ours, then turn and deliberately poop in the water, so yes, ours is empty now.
