*sigh* Looks like all my vicious broom swinging and shouting attacks aimed at scaring off the damn pigeons from my balcony backfired a bit. Instead of scaring them off, it would seem I hastened their instinct for self-preservation, particularly the preservation of the species – with the result that I now once more sit with a mommy pigeon and her two eggs on my balcony.
Crap. Here we go again!
