Pigeons are known for the distinctive way they build nests. See the unconventional way this Cape Town pigeon has done it:

“My wife took this picture at Mitchells Plain Hospital of a bird who made his nest with cable ties. It’s sad that they have to make nests with our rubbish,” read the post.Reinforced by some of the comments, pigeons seem to have a bad reputation at making nests.

Anthony has since posted an update, showing the pigeon’s hatched squabs settling into their new home.
