I am sitting in a cafe, watching this collared dove bring sticks to the wisteria roof that covers the terrasse.

The honeymooners of pigeons. They're always in twos!
The ferals too really, that is if they're not sitting on eggs or young chicks. Almost all but young ones are coupled. And since they're bred to breed year round, you don't see them as often as a couple. When the chicks are old enough the parents hang out all day together, preening each other etc. But maybe even before the father teaches the kids to fly, the mother might already be sitting on a new pair of eggs. 🙄
You certainly know a thing or two about this subject!
