Will this attract them or what?

I live in a townhouse complax in Las Vegas, NV my folks don't have a back yard but we do have a balcony. My Mom planned to get a minature tree to put on the balcony, I was told by someone that mourning doves might build a nest in it. Hardly anyone goes out on the balcony except our 1 year old Pug who is out there 2 or 3 times a day.

But do you think that putting a minature tree on the balcony will attract mourning doves into using it as a nest site?

Also with the bird feeder idea, maybe you could put a birdbath, or a chair with a bowl of water on it, on the balcony. Just make sure its high enough so your pug doesn't drink out of it! It is possible, But I doubt that they will nest in it.

Maybe if you place a bird feeder out there as well you would have better luck. My 6 year old pug says that we put a wreath on our door and a pair of finches built a nest and hatched babies. They didn't seem to mind us using the door. Good luck with the dove tree! put food I doubt it VERY VERY much. I have mourning doves at my house(not a complex) but they will not come near the house only from a distance. I love mourning doves and give feed for them every day. But.. DO NOT COUNT on them nesting on the balcony We have lots of tree's in our backyard, and I put seed out for the birds everyday. Several types of birds come to eat, including mourning doves. But the are very wary and have never made a nest anywhere in our yard or trees.
