I made a post some time ago about some ring doves we found near Dobbs Weir in hertfordshire…
Well they’ve finally hatched!
A few of us have seen the dovlets
walking along a local roof! I don’t think that they are ready to fly yet, as they haven’t made an attempt. (Well not to our knowledge anyway)
I saw the parents the other day too… I was driving my car to work and the parents flew right alongside my car – totally cool! They were almost gliding with a few flaps here-and-there, to keep them steady…
Birds are so lucky, don’t you agree? They can walk, fly and swim – I wish I could fly – that would be so cool! (I could then avoid the daily congestion lol)
I did wanna take some photos of the babies, but I didn’t wanna get too close – birds can be really protective, so I will leave it down to your imagination, that is unless I get a good opportunity, but heck – I don’t spend my days bird watching –
I got fireplaces to design!
Anyway, I will do a third and final post on this, once they have flown the nest!
Ciao for now!
