Some birds do 'av 'em

There are occasions when, on the way to work, that you see something that must have been there a while, but which you never noticed before.

I was alerted to something above my head by the spatter of bird droppings near my feet. To be cautious I avoided them in case more arrived as I walked by. But then I realised there was another walkway above me, so I looked up.

This pigeon had chicks but I don't think my photo shows that. She had craftily made use of a coil of flex to build the nest in. I must have passed the nest many times but never looked up to see it.

And I still would not have seen it if pigeons were cleaner.

Update - the chicks are big and ugly!
