Noble beautiful wood pigeon

As the name suggests, these birds are supposed to live in the forest. This beautiful bird is called wood pigeon. But here they live on the outskirts of city parks. Away from crowded sidewalks.

The wood pigeon belongs to the species of birds of the genus pigeons. By appearance, one can determine the relationship with city pigeons, which live in large numbers in different places. The wood pigeon looks noticeably larger than other pigeons. And he looks much more noble. The wood pigeon also finds food selectively. I love these beautiful birds and always take pictures of them when I see them. But the wood pigeon does not let him get very close to him. This is another difference from city pigeons.

But wood pigeons like to climb high on a tree and sit, dreamily contemplating the surroundings. And just at this time you can take pictures.

I met this handsome man today in the park. I saw him take off and sit on a tree branch.

At first, the pigeon dodged me. Hiding behind branches. He showed me his tail. But then he decided to give in to me. He was tired of hiding for a long time.

He lifted his head dreamily. So I decided. In fact, the dove was preparing to pluck a twig.

Ready for work. It is necessary to think carefully about which branch is better to pluck.

And now the branch is already in the bird's beak.

Spring is now. It's time to build nests for new offspring.

Took one branch to its intended purpose. He went down to the ground for another. All in the work of a business dove. But he gave me the pleasure of watching him.

I love this species, so huge and elegant. Watch out for the droppings though!

Thanks.
