What secrets does Avenue des Ramiers hold? It’s a question many ponder as they stroll along this tranquil street in Neuilly-Plaisance. Avenue des Ramiers, named after the Wood Pigeon, a common sight in Paris. This avenue, however, offers a peculiar mystery. Where are all the baby pigeons? Paris, a city teeming with pigeons, presents an odd paradox. While adult pigeons are ubiquitous, their offspring remain elusive. The Wood Pigeon, or pigeon ramier as it’s known in French, prefers to nest in trees. Their nests are tucked away high amidst the branches, making them difficult to spot from the ground. Baby pigeons remain in these hidden nests until they reach adult size, around three weeks. This explains the absence of baby pigeons on Avenue des Ramiers and throughout Paris. They’re simply out of sight, high above in the trees, growing rapidly until they’re ready to join their parents on the city streets. So, next time you’re on Avenue des Ramiers, look up. You might not see them, but the baby pigeons are there, hidden amongst the leaves, a secret treasure of the Parisian skies.
