i know they get a bad rap and maybe thats why i love them so.
this on the top is the baby of franz and ethyl. we watched them work really hard for a weekend to prepare their nest - tang time to pluck the finest twigs from the surroundings. ethyl looked emaciated after egg birth.
helped her along with oily black sunflower seeds and she was soon back in form.
this was the fledglings first visit to our garden and it was so sweet it made me cry.
i had wondered if they would bring their baby - well toddler would be more the equivalent? and they did, she did.
franz came on his own while ethyl brought junior.
pigeons and doves are the same thing- for all those who call their ads with wings.
only difference is one is shunned and the other released at cheesy ceremonies - when people think that sort of thing appropriate.
rent your box of doves, get them while they are hot.
