A Few Funky Facts About Nests:
Most common backyard birds lay two to eight eggs. Hatching usually begins about two weeks after the last egg is laid and it takes another two weeks before the young are ready to leave the nest.
Even if a nest has been built in a somewhat inconvenient place (for you), be patient! In a few weeks the birds will be gone. Meanwhile, you get a front-row seat to a wonder of nature.
Baby birds have brightly colored beaks that help parents hit the bull's-eye with food!
For their first three days of life, nestling pigeons depend solely on "pigeon milk," a liquid loaded with protein and fat that is produced by both the mother and father!
