Here is a picture of a momma dove that made her nest in our hanging basket, she is getting used to us being around. She just sits there while I water all the other plants around her.

Here is her babies, they finally have their eyes opened
Very cute st!! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Your welcome pelle, we sit out there every morning and just watch her sit there. I am so afraid that one of my yorkies is going to get her, when she does get off the nest she goes straight for the ground, and they run after her, so I have to yell at them.

You'll have to keep the dogs in the house on fledge day! Boy they are cuties! Bet the Yorkies are too.
"Our " dove nested in the ivy growing on the house next door at 2nd-floor level. Her two fledglings appeared in my garden this week. If I move quietly, I can get within a few feet of them
