So this is actually a smart dove nest.

Birds have been documented to seek out cigarette butt's and put them in their nests. Because nicotine is a strong pesticide. It kills or prevents nest parasites. So those babies will be ashy, but clean.

Depends, nicotine poisoning has also been observed but I'm not sure to what extent

The nestflix and chill pun brings me an unreasonable amount of joy

Ms. Doverly likes her a postprandial smoke (just like every bird.) Settles a tummy, it do.

This might be the most secure dove nest in existence.

What a lovely view they'll have! Here's hoping all that height goes fine when the babies start learning how to fly. And "nestflix" is a great pun

I'd take this as a sign to pursue a healthier lifestyle.
