Mourning Dove Couple




















Here is my Mourning Dove couple. They are great parents. I say this because I was trying to snap pictures of their two babies and they shooed their little cuties into the bushes away from my camera. The couple then perched themselves on the fence to keep a watchful eye on me. Okay, okay - I get the hint. But you two make a nice photo.....
