The Babies are gone - flown the coop

That is the pigeon babies are gone. The mum has been around off and on but she was too big to sit in the nest with the two babies. One of the babies hopped up on to the ledge and then after about an hour it flew to the window ledge. And when I checked last both of them are gone. I wonder if they will come back, I mean today!

But then we had workmen around today to fix the water leak out the front of our house. They all had to come and have a look at the birds.

It was very interesting because they dug a big hole and put this big tube in the hole. Then one of the workmen went in the hole to make the repairs. It didn't take them long to fix it. At least the front end of our garden is well watered now.
