baby pidgeons

[utternutter]

why\do you never see baby pidgeons in the street?

Look up! You may see one poking his head out of the nest.

By the time the chicks are ready to leave, they look exactly like the parent bird - they even look the same size. And they very soon learn to fly properly and aren't fed by the parent bird once they fly the nest.

i always wondered this, my uncle in canada had pigeons and i got to hold a baby one, they are not as cute as little chicks.
heres a pic i found on google of 2 baby pigeons at 3 days old..

What do you call a baby pigeon? This is a serious question.
