What a couple. Shitting on the balcony railing.

When i first saw Alfie, one and a half years ago on my balcony i thought he must be real old or sick. He was sitting in a flower pot and seemed completely unimpressed that i was standing right next to him. Just doing a lazy warning call, which i did not even recognize back then. Well i guess he is actually quite old, but such a chill dude.

And Maria always used to be my favorite pigeon, she just has such a funny and lovely character. I didn't know for a long time that they were actually a couple, i thought that was so cool when i found out.

In the last weak i saw Maria getting on top of him to mate, haha. But also the other way around. Never seen that before with other couples.

Do they actually couple up? There’s a couple that keep sitting on my fence and my daughter’s convinced they’re married.

Yes, usually life long couples.


Some more Alfie & Maria from the weekend. They have kids who are doing their first flights right now.
