For anyone interested in this saga, it seems that Georges nest has been very much in demand with the other pigeons now that Georges original partner has gone, and George has found him self a new mate. The squabs have both finally fledged, almost 4 days late, and George is continuing to look out for them. The squabs are still using the nest during the day and over night.
There is however a bit of apparent resentment from one of the squabs at the thought of his new step mum, and he is continuously trying to evict the new female. The squab has sustained a bit of a bloody nose in the process as he is obviously a bit smaller than Georges new mate, but the squab has succeeded many times to evict the new female. She perseveres with sitting at the entrance to the bird house and has even seen off another of Georges female suitors, who incidentally was a bully to both of Georges squabs.
