Quotes by Rosemary Mosco (?)

“Pigeons take incubation seriously--maybe too seriously. Sometimes house sparrows pull feathers from the butts of nesting pigeons to line their nests. The pigeons weather this injustice stoically and just keep on incubating their eggs.”
― Rosemary Mosco, A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching: Getting to Know the World's Most Misunderstood Bird

“The process of pushing out the egg is incredibly fast. Blink and you'll miss it. If you're a human parent, this relatively easy process might make you jealous. (Get ready to become even more jealous: A female pigeon is ready to lay her eggs just eight to twelve days after mating.)”
― Rosemary Mosco, A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching: Getting to Know the World's Most Misunderstood Bird

“The floor of the nesting area has to be flat so it'll support the haphazard pile of sticks that they call a nest.”
