Re: How to protect pigeons from hawks

We nursed back two baby pigeons that we found on the sidewalk, under
the RR Bridge. It was in April. They got used to living in our garage
because that is where we kept them for protection. They got along
perfectly until recently. They are both males and they took partners.
One chased the other one out of the garage and does not even want it to
come near the food I give them. The weaker one no longer sleeps in the
garage but comes back to eat. It is breaking our hearts. The stronger
one is trying to make a nest in the garage. We do not want to be cruel
but we do not want them to raise babies in the garage.

How long can we let them stay in the garage (to protect them from the
winter cold) before it is too late to move them out?
