Everyday this week a pair of doves have been visiting. One sits in this same place for a while as the other perches on the railing and inspects the patio. A couple of times he flew at the sliding glass door. Did he see his own reflection in the window or what? Looks as if they are looking for a safe nesting place. Hubby asked me what I will do if they decide to use my patio for their new home. Have to think about that one, I would miss my morning outdoor breakfast retreats, but love seeing them up close through the window! And today, a chickadee flew into the corner planter box to have a look! Never in the nearly five years that we have lived here, have I seen birds visit my patio! It truly is Spring, if you are bird watching!
How sweet! Hope your friends continue to visit. Don't you love signs of spring?
ReplyDeleteLooks like you might have a dove family on your patio! I would love to be able to watch birds nesting up close!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo of a beautiful bird! Happy bird watching to you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little visitor :) They're fun to have around, but can sure make a mess!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great dilemma!
ReplyDeleteThat dove looks mighty chunky!
ReplyDeleteBirds made a nest in a pot of parsley on my deck a couple years ago. I kept watering the plant somewhat and very carefully. Both birds and plant survived.
