Default Non-observant!


All pigeon babies look big quite quickly once their feathers have grown.
The parents will feed them for 4 weeks at least (in or out of the nest),
wood pigeons are very good parents.
I'm guessing that yours are around 3 weeks old and will fledge very soon.



Just right for the pot.
Squabs; or milk fed pigeons were a delicacy
