Spring is in the air!

Port Elizabeth, South Africa(Zone 10a)

This morning it's a madhouse of "tweets" and "Knocking" everywhere.....I guess the winter is over....Speckled or Rock Pigeon breeding in branch of old tree.

The "knocking" came from about 5 different tree's. This is the cause!

Thanks pelle...had to push the camera to the edge...but I got what I hoped would tell the story! I will try and add the little one as he grows, they nest there continously...many, many doves from that spot...

thanks nanny, I was actually lucky, I hear them every day, but they are high up in the trees and you only see them as they move..I guess they had other things on their mind, giving me an opportunity to "snap" them.
