The spring advanced: there were other eggs in the nest, and other broods to be cared for, and always Chico remained the faithful husband and father tender to his fledgling offspring loving and true to his little wife. And, whenever household cares permitted, the two could be seen on the window ledge, billing and cooing: "Coo-oo, coo-oo-oo, Ruk-at-a-coo." At last the new Campanile was completed.
The mild smell of the well-kept stalls was lost in the sweet odor of hay, as we mounted a ladder and entered the long garret. The south end was walled off, and the familiar "Coo-oo, cooooo-oo, ruk-at-a-coo," varied with the "whirr, whirr, whirr" of wings, informed us that we were at the pigeon-loft.
All day long they perched together, billing and cooing to their hearts' content, "the prettiest sight in Venice," as all agreed who saw them. "Coo-oo," he would begin, and she would answer softly. Then they would join in "Coo-oos coo-oo-oo. Ruk-at-a-coo, coo-oo."
