Mourning Dove nest update - home improvements
I checked on the nest again this morning and I'm happy to report that the foundation seemed to have been shored up a fair bit since I first found the nest on Sunday.

What a beautiful shot of that mourning dove...she looks so sweet peeking through the leaves, and they frame her nicely...
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures! We have collared doves here, they look very similar.
ReplyDeleteThat little head peaking up at you is so cute.
ReplyDeleteI think your ghost cat is trying to morph himself onto the other side of the window.
Beautiful shots Elaine. It is wonderful to be so close to this event.
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you are to have the nest to watch. We have tree swallows interested in our birdhouses, but the barn swallows that built a nest last year haven't returned. - Margy
ReplyDeleteLove the little peeking eye. She must feel safe around you.
