Friday afternoon I came home from grocery shopping and walked by my planter with a load of groceries in my arms and a dove flew by my head and scared the bejeezus out of me. There was another dove sitting on the fence across from my planter which made me think that something must be up. We notice that there was nest in one of my mint planters again but there were no doves. Now I know why....they made a decoy nest and actually nested in my newly moved planter. Both of the doves flew off and I was able to get a shot of the one egg that they had laid.
Saurday morning daddy dove was back and we haven't been able to see whether there is just one egg still or if a second one has been laid yet.
Oh and by the way? That plant that the dove is nesting on was just planted last weekend. Those doves sure know my gardening habits.
Limo Man and I are just happy that they are back. We don't know if these are the parents from last year or the babies having their own brood. But Happy Easter and we'll keep you up on the babies.
