sensei, a little bird story for ya. I just came back from an errand. My building has an enclosed lobby and semi-sub parking, but inside it's a open air courtyard with some big trees....the walkways have Art Deco'ish wall sconces to light your way after dark.
I swore I saw something on top of the sconces. Yep, Mr. and Mrs. Mourning Dove, cooing and checking out the real estate. Approaching quietly, I inquired if they were nesting? They did their little squeaky sounds and flew off.
Now I'm wondering, if they do try to nest there, will it be nice & warm for the eggs or too hot for survival?
Yesh, I'm a sucker for critters.
Two crows landed on the Palace patio this AM and spent a long time looking in at the Palace Felines, who expressed their interest in pursuing said birds. The winged ones shrugged, took off, now came back for another rest. I'm calling them Russell and Sheryl.

Breaking News: Monsieur et Madame Dove are now on the patio, perching 'round the light fixture there. So they are def looking for just the right HQ's.
Starter homes on the Westside at a reasonable price are very difficult to find.
