Pigeons occupying the nests of pigeons and magpies refer to turtledoves and magpies refer to magpies. Turtledove can't make nests, and often grabs magpies' nests.
This idiom comes from bird behavior in nature. Pigeons (a kind of bird) are not good at building nests and often occupy magpies' nests. In The Book of Songs, pigeons sing, magpies make noise and try their best to build nests, which is just a description of other people's new homes. Pigeons here symbolize forced invasion, while magpies symbolize the original owner.
In daily life, it is not uncommon for pigeons to occupy magpie nests. For example, some people, out of the pursuit of interests, use improper means, such as deception and theft. , and occupy the property or status of others. This behavior is regarded as a realistic manifestation of pigeons occupying nests.
The moral of this idiom lies in revealing the injustice and unfairness of human society. For those who occupy the nest, what they get is not through honest labor or legal means, but by depriving others of their rights. This violates social justice and moral norms and should be condemned and punished by law.
