Nada. Doesn't show for me.

Sorry some of you don't get the the photo. If you see the URL click it.
I'm having troubles opening photo bucket right now so it may be the link to it. Try again later. I'll also try to upload individual photos. And hopefully they'll pose for me again.

A d o r a b l e !!

Are there like 20 chicks or is it the way the photo displays ?

Thanks for this, Lori

Russ - 6-2-2017 at 05:00 AM

What a great experience Russ. Your are now a Grampa....:bounce::D

Cute!

We also have quite a few of them around our house.

We enjoy seeing them with large family's this time of year. Unfortunately their numbers seem to decrease pretty rapidly as they must be quite vulnerable to all sorts of predators especially domestic cats. When they first hatch they look like little mice following the adults.

I agree with Meany you are a grampa x7:bounce:
really sweet thank you again, Lori

Russ - 6-3-2017 at 06:56 AM

Got a short opportunity to take a shot. Appears the little ones have doubled in size over the last 3 days. Here papa is trying to herd them away from me. Really funny to watch cuz they didn't want to go.


Sorry about the photo quality. I'm having major problems with auto focus.

They aren't as shy now. I put more food out but the dove are getting most of it.









And my favorite



CaboMagic - 6-3-2017 at 08:26 PM

Beautiful!

Russ - 6-7-2017 at 06:43 AM

The little ones are growing and 4 showed up without the parents this morning.


Awhile later the other 3 showed with them.

These 2 seem to be younger. Still downy

Good shot --how far??:?:

Russ - 6-15-2017 at 07:11 PM

only 20yards but am working on groups like that at 50yds+. There are about 20 pellets in that group. Normal group would be 10 or so.
