1. I love pigeons.

I had pigeons growing up. There are hundreds of breeds.

2. Yesterday I learned that pigeons and doves sometimes mate

I think there are a couple among the pigeons and doves I feed. Unfortunately, like mules, they’re sterile.

3. And in tropical areas of the Old World

there are the shockingly beautiful fruit doves.

4. Wow! Thanks!

Though it’s painful to watch — many are threatened, endangered or extinct.
