And, I would guess, the pigeons are as happy as can be!

I certainly will mate, thanks.

Siesta time for furry boys on a hot summer afternoon

And Olly

And Banjo baby

It got warm this afternoon. 39.1 as I write.
The pigeon shed is corrugated iron. It gets too hot to touch in the blazing sun. I have hosed it down about ten times today. It cools the tin right down, but it soon gets hot again. But I think it stops the shed getting hotter and hotter and hotter.
I put two baths in there earlier, and when I looked they were all stuffed in them looking very pleased. Just getting some water in their plumage seems to help.
I have added a little apple cider vinegar, not much, to the drinkers. On a hot day a little acidity is refreshing.
Just took a look, they are fine. They probably would be anyway, pigeons are pretty tough, but I want to make it as comfortable as I can for them.
It's what we do, isn't it.

All looking happy and contented Murray sure the birds thank you for it

This is the pigeon shed.
Not flash, but I am fortunate in having the use of it
