Discovery......

For several years we've had a pair of doves try to nest in the eves of our back patio...but because of the frequent traffic through that area and the breeze that comes through, they've never been successful. Last week Dave discovered a nest on the ground near the corner of the house....he put it back in the gutter hoping she'd return. Not only has she returned but she has laid 2 eggs in the corner of the gutter. She allows us to climb the ladder to check on her and talk to her and has even allowed Dave to touch her tail feathers.....daddy dove is usually watching over us all from the roof of our neighbor.
