💯 ! Had mourning doves nesting next to our front door. Really dumb birds. At least the pigeon tried to arrange twigs.

Doves would lay an egg on a flat hard surface. Then they would fly away every time someone used the door. The egg would roll away, and fall off the second floor walkway.

They just kept... doing that. Next to the front door. Over and over. Literally the dumbest birds on the planet.

Poor things!

I felt sorry for them the first time. But the third? Fourth?

There was shrubbery 10 feet away.
