Since six springs the same pair of common wood pigeons try -unsuccessfully- to build a nest on the electrical cables that hang from my grandmother’s house. Matilda, a neighbour, says that she sees everything from her window. Moreover, some holm oak’s branches appear in front of my grandma’s house’s door. She collects them and burns them on winter. The pigeons still haven’t succeed in building any nest.

Matilda and my grandma gave me a detailed explanation of the facts and some other issues. The conversation was recorded, transcribed and analysed using hyperRESEARCH, a qualitative data analysis software. Conceptual maps were generated from the conversation’s codification. The possibility that some of them may contain the instructions for the successful building of a pigeon’s nest isn’t rejected.
