Dove on a limb
This dove lives in the forest here at Bergdalen. We did have a problem some years ago when they nested on the roof but as long as they stay in the forest I'm happy. Over the last week this dove has been moving closer and closer to my veranda. The cat, Tindra, who originally lived with the neighbours, but who now lives here, is very upset, but I like it as I can get some good shots of the bird. What you can't see (or hear), is Tindra under the tree. When the dove finally flew away she ran after it. Normally I will link to a bigger version of my shots, but I made a very cool Out Of Bounds photo of this so try this link for that.
A great closeup.
ReplyDeleteIt is a nice shot of what we call a "Mourning Dove." I had no idea they were international.
