Myriad of them nesting in one locality it requires a large scope of country to furnish them their food. They arc known to feed fifty miles distant from their nests. The absence, for this purpose would require so much time, that the eggs would be. come cold, were it not that the cock and the hen each sit ou the nest while the other feeds. For this reason a flock of pigeons during the batching season is always either, all cocks or all hens.
