Why do you never see baby pigeons?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$As you may know, baby birds are brought to the parents by the Stork. Then the parents feed them and keep them warm.

But since you are curious, here is what a baby pigeon looks like before it leaves the nest.
