Interesting Facts
- Found on all continents and in all large cities, the rock dove, commonly known as the domestic pigeon (Columba livia), is native to few of these places. As people moved across oceans to the New World, they took pigeons with them. Many became feral but continued to live in proximity to people. It’s estimated that there are about five million pigeons in New York City alone.[1]
- The bird’s homing instinct was used early in ancient history by Egyptians and Greeks. News of Caesar’s victories in Gaul was sent to Rome by carrier pigeon. A Baghdad sultan is said to have set up the first pigeon mail around A.D. 1150. Pigeons were used extensively at the front in World War I. Pigeon racing has become a worldwide sport, the birds usually flying at about 50 mph.[1]

Biology
Diet
Mostly seeds, with some other green plant matter and some insects.
Reproduction
Pigeons are prolific. They lay
only two eggs
at a time, in a nest
scraped together from a few sticks
, but eggs hatch
in 18 days. In another month the birds are almost ready to fly. The male and female help raise the young, feeding them digested food from their crops
, then adding half-digested grains until the young can eat whole grains.[1]
