What is bigger a common pigeon or wood pigeon?
Similar in size, if you mean common pigeon as the rock dove.
Actually, yes. Pigeons are very social, and they often spend time with the same group. What's amusing is when they feel like they want to mate: the male pigeon will choose a female he wants to mate with, and he will do a circular dance around her, trying to persuade her. She may or may not be interested, and if she does not like his dance, she will just walk away from him. If she is interested, you will see the two of them engage in mating wherever they happen to be. Also, some pigeons have a competitive relationship with squirrels and they will chase each other away from food.
