User's notes

A Crested Pigeon appeared to be attempting to mate with another Crested Pigeon. The first pigeon splayed its tail out and commenced bobbing along the branch to the second pigeon. The second pigeon did not respond positively, flying off to a different tree. The first pigeon perched on the branch for a little while before flying off in a different direction.
