Just like the title says, I've been feeding this pair of pigeons that have been visiting my garden, I'm trying to convince them to nest in my garden, one of them has always been fairly friendly and would eat out of my hand his partner was way more timid but they both used to fly away as soon as I moved, now they're both way more friendly they'll both eat out of my hand and instead of running when I move they follow me to where I keep the food and wait patiently and they'll groom themselves and each other in front of me, one of them even settled down and had a snooze a few days ago. Today I fed them as usual and then sat a little away from the food watching them, after they ate they had a little splash in the bird bath and then while one of them groomed himself the other one was just watching me I assumed maybe she was keeping an eye on things while her mate relaxed then she started blinking and sticking her tounge out while still looking at me, she did it quite quickly about 20 times then continued looking around the garden before repeating this behaviour, I tried to get a video but a magpie landed on my fence and they both flew off, was I siting to close and she's trying to ward me off?? Is it something medical?? What should I be doing
