For some time now,
every time I go down the path to my studio,
I've been peering up into our trellis attached to the house
for a glimpse of a mother Mourning Dove and her baby.
I have to find just the right angle in order to see them for they
are very well hidden.
At first I thought there was just one baby and then I saw
another.
Yesterday one baby appeared on the ledge with mom
while the other remained in the nest.
Next time I looked
all three were together on the ledge!
Maybe they are getting ready to fly away...
They sure have touched my heart!

Those are wonderful photos, Nan! I wish we had Mourning Doves out here, I love their voices.
Thanks Victoria,
It's now Weds. am. and I can hear the Mourning Doves calling...as I was on my way to the studio to bring Ellie May (my studio cat) her breakfast, I stopped suddenly for there were the baby doves sitting on the brick pathway...the Mom was further down the path facing them. I hope they will stay safe! I quickly turned around!
