I am just watching pigeons, appearing to be making a nest, in the gap between the solar panels, on a neighbours roof, and the panels. Is this a common problem with solar panels?

The red-tailed kites mean birds would not last long if they nested in the solar panels, eggs and chicks would soon be food. I would guess it depends on where you live.
We do have lots of red kites, almost always one circling on the breeze above.
The pigeons appear to be making their way, between roof and panels, which might be a tight space for the larger kite.

They follow the local steam train, I think it disturbs wild life, and they catch them, great view from the veranda at the back of the train.
