mama bird

Look what we found when we got home from the beach...
She is a mourning dove and has made her nest on some outdoor shelves on our back porch.

There are now 2 eggs in her nest. She is spending a lot of time there but has apparently become comfortable with us coming and going near her nest. She doesn't even fly away now unless we make a lot of noise or slam the door. If we are on the back porch, she will just sit there and watch us.

I will post more pictures when the eggs hatch!
