The Great Pigeon Debacle
We have two pigeons nesting in an old tomato plant on our balcony.
What should we do? The pigeons are already pretty defensive of the
nest. They fly away when we go out there to water the plants, but not
before they flap around all crazylike. We're thinking we'll toss the
eggs and cover the plant up with that board propped against the wall.
Does the world really need more pigeons??

I love pigeons! If you let them stay you'll have the opportunity to see the elusive baby pigeon.
Waste not, want not.
Pigeons are disgusting, filthy animals. Some idiot a few floors below us actually puts food on her balcony for them, so they can hang out and crap all over our floors and spread their diseases. You're not even supposed to sweep their droppings because that just puts it into the air so you can breath it in and get sick from it. You know no fury until you see the crazy in Katherine's eyes when she hears pigeons on our balcony.
Upset the nest or, better yet, put out an arsenic bird feeder. A catchy little ditty might lead the way...
i'm with glynn - eat 'em.
Yes. I hate pigeons and their droppings.
When I hear them on our balcony at 6am cooing away, I jump out of bed and throw empty plastic soda bottles at them.
